The end of a watch knew not the lengthy day or a tilt towards a fiery orb its mounted rotated hands spoke of minutes that became hours on any celestial body cavorting with interests denials and deceit its market had to bottom out from free falls cliff hangers that bungee jumpers would pull their twine on wars without ends.. There were three wise men who followed a star and three auto men who followed their private jet urges their tactics fell short of reason they knew not of the impeding nights cavorting with self -interest bigger and better models denials and deceit needing more and more but clock hands grow weary its the end of a watch With boredom came greater measures as moments dragged into icy nights and night clouds shrouded a global clock face as markets bottomed out.. hourglass sands already having being depleted of its coffee colored treasures the Sahara could not cough up any more wealth but its peoples could be squeezed out of existence. With the end of the watch the bungee jumper took his leap as the stars and stripes paid yet again its coiled spring having given way to greater dues that protected jackals shirked they never bothered to read the cracked face of watches to count the minutes left..they cried as western wealth set early and hazy nights protected mantel clock chimes in some mysterious imperial bank city.
