On slow days, and fast years,
It's a comfort to know,
That Time doesn't falter.
He is steady and paced.
Never late, or breaking into a sprint.
Nor does he stroll by and watch the birds,
Lapels blowing in a slight breeze,
Musky scent entices all manner of passerbys.
None quite daring enough to get a taste.
It's a comfort to know,
That Time is mine to conquer alone.
