Ticking.
Tocking.
Ripping grandfather clocks apart,
With bare hands.
Chiming every hour –
Until sanity’s all gone.
Chinese water torture,
Versus waterboarding.
As if our own penance,
We scribed,
Wasn’t worse.
“The Infinite Deconstruction Of The Self.”
Clocks?
Ego Death;
In the form of constant ritual.
