Tick Tock, Counts the Clock (alliteration)

Tick tock, Tick tock, Tock Tock ticking

Clocks cluck, catching curious cries

Several seconds slide, slowly sticking

Eclectic evil ever eager to eat out eyes

 

Tock tock, tick tick Tock

danger dances down, depicting doom

Hands hold hearts heavily in hock

aren't all able to articulately assume?

 

Clock is currently counting costs

justifying jumps and juggling jacks

tabulating time that is tossed

lightening liberal lust and loving lax

 

tick tick tick, tick tick tick

destination is a detonation despised

tock tock tock, tock tock tock

sheep sleep soundly shrouded, so surprised
