Tick and Tock

Tick and Tock

A Poem by GeraldFIngBurke
"

A woman's experience with time.

"
Tick and tock
Clang, bang the clock
Hit eleven-thirty

The woman whooshed
Her dim gray sheets
Over little Ernie

Ernie hissed
Scratched snarled and bit
The woman's heart then hurried

Thump and wrest
She grabbed her chest
Collapsed in all her worry

The clock it wrenched and
Clanked and turned
But the woman bedded early
