The Owner of Time
Once upon a time,
There was a guy
So wealthy who was named Rich.
And one day,
He brought home
The creature “Time” himself.
As the owner of the time,
He was known to all.
Constantly whispered and moaned about,
As the owner of time.
Though Time was old,
He was fearless and bold.
High and mighty,
Proud and cold.
So once he got tired,
From the wealthy man’s hold,
He broke free,
And ran away.
As Rich and his wealth
Became lonely again,
And so this time,
He brought home,
Some untamed,
Unnamed
Creature labeled:
Space.
