Sifting through the sands of words
that with a ticking clock
fall upon the screen of life
tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.
Watching all the memories
that with a bright projector
are screened upon the mind
rushing past, rushing past.
All the people passing in the street
with aims of diverse kinds
briefly my awareness meet
walking fast, walking fast.
Where do they go
where do they go
into the past with time
tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
unmoving I simply watch
as they all go by.
I enjoyed this... the image of time and all of us living our private, individual time... interesting

Some great analogies employed in this piece. And the rhythm is maintained as a successful comparison to the movement of the clock. I like it quite a lot. Thanks.
