Tick Tock
Tick, tock, tick,tock
time to stop this hurried clock
pause a while and take a breath
no escaping eventual death.
Do the things you want to now
take that trip, go on vacation
what is with this hesitation?
wipe that sweat off of your brow.
Hurry hurry don't procrastinate
take the time to meditate
stop the hurry, stop the clock
feel the sea breeze from the dock
before the curtain falls
and death your name in hurry calls.
