Well let's count.
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
Do you have the time?
When in boredom
I count the minutes
The ticks as they spin
Circumround.

In an hour
I'll be better.
In a second
I'll be worst.
But in the moment
I lack of worth.

in an hour
I'll be of service
In a second
I'll be unworth it
In a history
I'll be unnoticed
In a memory
I'll be cherished.

5 4 3 2 1
Oh wait
I'm not done.
1 2 3 4 5
Ticks my life.
