Time Is a Juggernaut
Time is a Juggernaut
jostling by
knocking you down
and doesn't care why
Nudging you off
of the track you were on
trashing your space
invading your home
Shoving big features
right in your face
crashing your party
taking your place
Time's own agenda
Bully takes All!
tripping you up
just to laugh
when you fall
Time takes your family,
time takes your things
time's still around
when the fat lady sings
waiting outside when
you've had all your fun
time takes you home
and asks what you've done
It isn't your father
it isn't your friend
But it's all that you want
when you get to
the END.........TIME
