God Controls The Hourglass Poem by Saiom Shriver

God Controls The Hourglass



God put 25 years' more sands
in the lifetime hourglass of one..
H/She gave 50% more birthday candles
on the cherry pie of another..
H/She patted the hand of a third..
and her lifeline was doubled..
but there was a fourth..
in the magnetic field
of ecstasy
his earthclock stopped..
he wanted only to be with
the Lord of Love..
... and that evening
he slipped from his body cage.
