POEM
In this crowded, congested city
the frog of time
jumps and jumps forward.
The frog needs no watch
but we, the human-beings
including man and woman
students and children
need watches around their wrists
for the purpose of knowing
the time whenever they
want to go through it.
But the snail’s progress of time
was sufficient to
go through watches
across the villages of yore
where time was like a
stagnant pool of water.
Time needs no watch
but we need watches
around the wrists of each one.
