Staring at the Hourglass

The golden sand slids from side to side

As the

Years

Months

Weeks and

Days slide on by

Growing older never younger

Ruled by money or

Starving hunger

Populations rapidly increase

Human lives always decline

Forever the sand still sparkles

Glistening through that sun of mine

Every armful is a day

All the handfuls count the hours

Every pinch is the minute

All the grains are the seconds

Counting down human life

Growing older never younger

Until we all go under.
