POEM STARTER

Ouroboros/the snake that bites its tail

Write a poem that finishes at the beginning.

Your Clock

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.


You told me

That the clock wouldn’t stop.

That the clock was eternal,

like us.


So then,

why can’t I hear the sounds?

Why am I stuck hearing nothing,

but your voice in the empty void?


I know.

You’re gone.

So the clock went with you.

Because of our lies.


We lied.

Now there will be no more


Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
