Analysis of Broken clock
Quetzal pisac 2001 (India)
Clock of life,
Once strikes to a lock
It pierced like a knife
Now left only shock
Tik tok tik tok it goes
Neither seem to pause
Nor got any loss,
But made a lot of foes
Noone loved the clock anymore
It only made their days harsh
Now they care No more,
