Under Arrest

Friend dared sheriff to put Time under arrest
    give his new handcuffs the ultimate test

  Clicking them shut -- you could have predicted
    He checked his watch ~ Time flew away unrestricted

Thanks for the tip, Robert. I won't expect either Tide or Time whenever I 'get there.' :)

Houdini, sorry to say, was performing his 'Joe Biden' act, i.e., asleep at the switch!

Nor can anyone stop the wagging tongue of the pendulum. Well written, GW.

For sure -- time does not answer to man, no matter what Einstein said. With the handcuffs, I thought you were going to talk about Trump being forced to put up bail money, just in case he skips. Jeez. You believe it?!

I'd like to see Biden try to skip. He'd fall flat on his face!
