I should have known better: The Catholic all-boy camps, Themed with talks on vocations, Never truly acknowledged prayer, But the clock And its ticking weighing all With its cesium hypnosis.
“Regulars” expand beyond religious culture, though. When I go to meet people casually or formally, Regardless of age, I am time’s pawn That never understands when it’s time to end Unless I want that time to end. When I don’t like an event, An hour can feel like an eon. When I enjoy moments so much, An hour is a blissful breath-second.
Due assignments, Ugh! Perfect focus never exists then, Only “****, ****, ****” in tapping my skull To assess the situation And submit a ******* draft, ******! Don’t be late…too late, The white rabbit’s time is on schedule: I’m always late. Time to start over.
