The hour glass resembles a mirror reflection. "Once a man, twice a child" follows the same order. This "concrete" or "theme" or "shape" poem about time is written as a palindrome to give the same effect, with its mirrored words. It reads the same end to start as it does start to end. That's what life is.

Thanks, yeluw; your support sweetens my labour.
I use a lot of Google to find unique photos that match my messages. Then I change backgrounds (where necessary), using Photos, a Microsoft store app.
I also manipulate my images to fade the edges for a smoother continuum between my page colour and the image background.
You should try it sometime. I will help, if you want.

The difference between subjective and objective time...and all such an illusion. A real thinking piece of art Cab.
