Array ( [sid] => 179053 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Tick Tock Tick Tock [time] => 2014-08-11 11:28:10 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Tick Tock Tick tock
the second hand turns so slow
Father time doesn’t stand still
he’s always on the go

An alarm goes off
as you try to stop time
The second hand still keeps on ticking
but you’ll still hear the chime

The ticking has a rhythmic nature
it tends to take your mind away
Father time has total control
there’s nothing we can do or say

Take a deep breath
relax and do not stress
It’s the beginning of your understanding
that you now have to address

Tick Tock Tick Tock
let the clock tick away
After all my friends
it’s just another day

This one stuck out to me I wrote a poem long ago titled the same I think ironically though your take on time is different, but I like it clocks drive me crazy the ever present ticking of the clock always knowing I'm losing time in a sense, but I enjoyed this poem
good read
hope to read more soon

Just say NO to clocks! I've been saying that for years. :P

This title grabbed me, as I've said it recently in a comment. Great job with this...I like the delicate nuance you have weaved throughout this write.

P.s alarm clocks- straight from hell, those things.
