my hourglass is broken
have you ever noticed
how the days pass by?
wasn’t yesterday tomorrow
and last week july?
time moves so strangely
in this universe of ours
it makes sense, of course,
with the minutes and hours
so perfectly calculated
and intricately designed
comprehension of how
is beyond the human mind
but with how quickly it seems
to move along, it sure
likes to take its sweet time
with things i’m waiting for
