Untitled, Nursery Rhyme?

Hickory dickory dock...

 

the mouse ran up the--holy crap!

 

what am i doing?! i'm writing a--

 

Oh yeah, the CLOCK!

 

The clock struck one, and I had some fun,

 

when the mouse made a mock of an old school rhyme;

 

it's those questions that cause one to regress back in time,

 

to a younger age of reason and thought...

 

 

To remember how family was,

 

and how time has changed it;

 

and that no little mouse scurrying down a clock,

 

could turn those hands back to hickory dickory dock.
