The making of my time piece.

I was blessed
having the cog of time
turning in my favour,
being alive, until
I found out,
the big cog of bad luck
was turning it.

It all makes sense now!

Life's bitter irony. The 'Gotcha!'. You expressed this so beautifully. The cog of time and the cog of bad luck meshing as they turn...we can see it happen.the worst joke ever played. Brilliant metaphor- bitter pill!

I can relate to this all too well. Life is ups and downs and time rolls on unrelenting.

Nice one andrew.

Indeed Tim, I find just when luck comes my way and I think yes and I start making plans on this good fortune, something happens and bad luck strikes in threes mostly nearly always.

One step up, two steps back. I know the dance well.

Exactly, we must come from the same factory!

Life does seem like a big production line sometimes. If that makes any sense.
