Song of the Clock
Poem by Jingyu
Translated by Christopher Tai

You and I
Used to be like the second hand
With gears engaged into each other
And with every gasp of breath
Making three steps into two
Running towards the minute hand

We
Also used to be like the minute hand
Extremely excited by the high speed
Yet we also left our soul behind
Due to the fatigue of overload

At last
We're going to be like the hour hand
Circling
In the same chart of life
Watching everyone racing against time
Rushing towards you

But in the
Grip of the destiny
We stopped to oscillate
Mechanically
Except for the ticking sound
We forgot what else
can be revisited
