[Master Rock]

I need a little bit of time to think
the hands go round, clockwork while the sand quickly sinks
I am wasting my moments splattering ink... babbling speech
or does my message fall on deaf ears failing to reach?
my destination is to achieve the plan
to grind the gears to what my imagination perceives
my ability to lead them to clear waters
but I trip alone and hope I don't shepherd these lambs into slaughter
what is it that I ought ta?
