8. To a Hermit
In the valley of the hermit,
an old woman lives alone
clutching onto a stone.
She knew time when she saw it.
She lived on top of a tower,
a storm brewing up above.
Still she didn't lose sight of
the rocks' hands from turning over.
One day a man came to her door,
showed her the wheel on his wrist.
"Time is something you can't resist!
this tower's not safe anymore."
The woman chose not to listen.
And when the lightning finally struck,
she ran completely out of luck
and time was something she was missing.
