so little time

seconds click
the red hand is jerking
staccato shakes with
violent force
recoiling after each
vehement denial
of the past

I like today's poem a lot- reminds me of the clocks we used to have in highschool, and the time clock of the grocery store where I had my first job- the minute hands on those old clocks used to move backward slightly before jumping ahead really hard. Nice little moment- small with great depth. :)

Thanks, those big old round school-type clocks were exactly the inspiration for this one.
