Now's A Good Time For Sleep

Now's A Good Time For Sleep

Tock, tock, tock

Through endless night

Tock, tock, tock

Pleading for light.

Tick, tick, tick

Stretching, empty seconds

Tick, tick, tick

Only darkness beckons

Tick-tock, tick-tock

The sluggish sleepy tortoise clock

Tick-tock, tick-tock

Shuffling slowly toward dawn

This somehow soothing mound

This Lurking Sideboard silhouette

Ticks off endless Cronus sounds

Marking wide-eyed moments yet.
