One Balance

As the bell tolls sounding the clocks of time,
We tell some things wrong, while some truths we find.
How much time will be time that is enough?
How much time until we find the right stuff?

What do clocks measure? Would time not still pass?
If we do nothing, only sit steadfast?
So, what makes time and the clock so crucial?
I foolishly ask if the clocks are useful.
