Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Poet Light Verse

Tick Stock Doomsday Clock

Time is money

                                    Tick

And money talks

                                    Tock

To better display 

                                    Doomsday

A graph of falling

                                    Stock

Jeff Connelly November 17, 2019 at 8:57 PM Wonderful Maureen!!! I love the visual of the page. The word usage has an almost nursery rhyme quality tock and talk and stock and display and Doomsday. Amazing piece as always. Complex simplicity. Sweet!!! Maureen. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart November 18, 2019 at 7:39 AM I totally forgot about this one :))) Thank you Jeff!
