The Immortal Beating

Poetry By: Rebecca Riddle

I looked at my clock.. It said five to five.

I turned the clock forward 12 hours, to the exact same time and had a really strange feeling go through me.
You know when someone "walks over your grave"?
Kinda like that.

Five to five.
Twelve more and it's back.
An endless circle,
A fathomless trap.

No one escapes,
And no one can change.
It cannot be hindered,
But always is blamed.

More powerful than nature,
Yet can be so small.
A hope or a wonder,
A trip or a fall.

Forever embedded,
In walls and in stone.
Incarcerated fully,
One steady tone.

It will keep on going,
It cannot be killed.
Like grass always growing,
On top of a hill.

I ask you what is this?
This odd sense of...
What?
The hands going round,
They never will stop.
