Tick, Tock, Describing a Clock

I.  Hands slowly move towards the hour

   One second feels like a minute

   A minute feels like 30

   Seems like three minutes

   A child cries

   Blaming the clock for making her go home

   The mouse scurries up

   Just like in the nursery rhyme

   Hickory Dickory Dock

   An innocent man awaits his fate

   Hearing the anxious clock

   Never look away

   Count the seconds until you no longer have to stay

   "Who cares about time?

   I'm already late anyway,"

   Yet his conscience still heard the mockery in the clock's

   She stares at the clock on the wall
