Clockwork,

I am this,

the multiple faces

of a watch

are

my own faces.

They unfurl

by the hour,

dark to light

light to not.

Winding

and rewinding

my clock does not stop.

Hands,

little and large are

forever grasping,

forever wondering,

wandering

my hourly minds.

Midnight will strike

one thousand times

before I know

which I is I.
