Grandfather

Clanking gears grind away, slowly forcing the pendulum back and forth in an endless dance
Monotonously persistent in their quest for balance
Bronze chimes overhead rumble away the familiar tune, announcing the passing of another hour
The Patriarchal timekeeper, wizened by age yet still solemnly ticking away in his place of honor
Some things never change
