Turns Out, Time Has a Temper!A Poem by Michael StevensWe all try to tame it!Tick tock, tick tock; ah, the
eel-like b*****d!
It slips and slithers away, and
hides from the light
You try to catch it, but you might
as well
Try catching the wind with a
fricking net!
Once, I thought I had caught it, sealed
it
In a jar, and placed it on the
shelf while I slept,
only to find the damn jar empty the
next morning,
And a note left behind by the
captive b*****d;
"Did you really think you'd
captured me; tamed me?
Ever heard the saying, 'time waits
for no man?'
Did you think that didn't apply to
you?
I'm on the loose, and I'm pissed,
so suck it!"
Turns out, Time has a temper; who
knew?
