There is a second. Suddenly it's two..then it doubles up to four Before you know there's twenty more And then another score and score. Minutes into hours and into scalding weeks Time is rock hot solid and time does not have leaks... ..and yet time drips away. So long.....So long The day that seems so long is just as quickly gone Time like soldiers marching on Cutting down the enemy Which by the way is you and me.
The second hand..A marching band Playing tunes which to our ears Sound like the rushing past of years.. ..and still the hand that sweeps the face continues on Then. We are gone.
A magic trick..So simple...slick Time. The curer of the sick that licks the wounds and heals the sores And turns the tide on timeless shores but still time pours and yet no leak. And though I seek the answers or at least a clue..time slows for me..If not for you. For when we age That pounding beat..that caged in rage is tempered by another gauge. Time the meter Time the cheater Time..You can't beat her. The second hand.the minute..hour wins absolute unchallenged power Time is the final **** Time is and always will Win.
