A Cricking Crocking Clicking Clock

A Cricking Crocking Clicking Clock

A Poem by Emilia Svejda
"

Crudely life creates cracks that cripple our clocks

"

My clock used to click round the clock.

When the clock clicked�"tick after tock�"I’d tap my toes to the clicks of the clock.

Now my clock’s cracked and clacks crick after crock.

Crudely, my clock still clicks, clack after crack, crick after crock.
