Gravitational Hand

   Gravitational Hands:
        (The unaffected minute)
 
The clock face project, the dials:
Suspended in a silent, frozen fluid state.
Detached from the norms of its time.
As the seconds turn to minutes,
Unrecognizing the hours in a hurry.
Away from those forgotten days, just
Last week, saying slow down before
Fortnight answers with a brief timeout.
 
This month had no time to reset.
There’s nothing we can do now.
The new year is here.
A crescent moon, being cradled, waits.
Angles suddenly appear in a weightless
Form within triple timing turns gravity
Into what becomes a mystified standstill.
 
Calm before we realize how? 
Decades can evade without notice.
The sudden moments of bygones
The century has shown throughout
Millennium, how far we've come
From aeon to eon, but the difference 
In the distance, when they appear in time.
Beckoning us to accept the hidden forces
Behind gravitational hands, in reality.
