Consider the while <br />tick… tock <br />Stop the clock <br />draw the curtain <br />paint the line <br />take your places one last time <br />No more standards <br />No more tasks <br />behind the hour hands changing mask <br />gather numbers in a bag <br />not to repeat that dreadful slant <br />down the face of forbidden hell……. <br />tick…….. <br />tock……. <br />To drift in sleep would be so sweet <br />but relentless time no mercy shows <br />just watch how fast the leader goes.<br /><br />Alc Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/consider-2/
