Time Is Against Them Poem by Afzal Ahmed Syed

Time Is Against Them



They are not waiting for some Galileo
to construct a giant clock
to be installed into the cityís commemorative wall
Besides reflecting our history
this vacuum
could be fitted out with a swing
on the International Day of Women
The Chinese troupe
could leap through it from off their stilts
From it
an abridged corpse could be hung
It could be stone-walled
with bricks from Mohenjo-Daro
