Poetry: the watchmaker hired a fumbling apprentice
the watchmaker hired a fumbling apprentice
tick-tock, tick-tock
The weary gong of a
Grandfather clock
The gentle snowfall
On leaden limbs
Dredge, dredge, dredge
(and)
tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick
The stuttered seconds of
Blurred summers quick
The far-flung lightning
On flighty cars
Flash, flicker, gone
slipping, drip, drip
life, blooming, consuming
speeding by
