Clock face

Still, flat hands
tick time away-
filling up boxes,
making empty space.

I don't know this form
and who it is for.
only stay and still
wait and count
the passing clouds
each passing hope-

hope for time, hope none is waste
hope whatever it is was worth the wait

but then there is more time
and there is more space.

It's a long time to look and see
only one flat, still clock face.
