Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 12/06/03 at 07:16 PM Beautiful to the eye without reading it! I think reflects the uncertainty of our times from the World's point of view. While Christians have anxiety over events I am sure, their worldview keeps them steady and stable. No panic! Rather trust! |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 12/07/03 at 09:08 PM Truly haunting and even mildly disturbing David. And I like it very much for that fact. A firm reminder in a subtle sense of how many things in life we leave unfinished. Our time here is indeed quite finitem as hourglass depicts. |

Posted by Max Bouillet on 12/09/03 at 04:48 AM Tremendous manipulation of time --both in concept and form. The words are masterfully crafted and the last line "the assurance of uncertainty" resonates with the reader long after the poem has been read. Thank you for sharing. |

Posted by Michelle Angelini on 06/01/07 at 02:19 AM Excellent poem with great images. Time is one of the few things that are certain - because it never stops. Congratulations on POTD.
