Time
Tick Tock Tick Tock
The unstoppable noise from the wall and the clock
Battery malfunction is its only means of stop
From day one our clocks started setting
And an end date still has us betting
For it guides us in our everyday forms of life
From being late to work onto a barney with the trouble and strife
Even the dog knows what time he's to be fed
Until the day is done and upstairs to bed
As time is the invisible line we cannot hurry or cross
The world spins in motion to the suns gravity who is the real boss
It keeps us rectified onto a sole purpose and a meaning
Or is God just watching us on his box, his own Netflix he is just streaming.
Time
Tick Tock Tick Tock

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time - Marthe Troly-Curtin
Time flies over us, but leaves its shadow behind - Nathaniel Hawthorne
The future has a way of arriving unannounced - George F. Will
Whether it’s the best of times or the worst of times, it’s the only time we’ve got - Art Buchwald
