Ironic Irony

For life,
Irony shows its ugly face
a pale blemish on the fabric of life
what goes around comes around
I heard it said, hell...I've said it
All things have a purpose, a reason
what's the season 
do you have the time
catch you on the fly
damn time is hard to catch
it almost broke my hands
but instead..broke my heart
did you see
though we are often blind to things
I felt the thud
guess you missed the commet shooting by
I heard that

Oh the Irony...
