Chairman
Fish's
Big
Red
Book
|
Tick,
toc,
Tick,
toc,
Half
a minute,
A
slice of the clock
A
first impression,
Beginning
cemented,
Good
vibrations,
Chance
presented.
A
passionate start,
A
middle, an end,
Ephemera
incarnate,
No
time to mend.
A
word on Countdown
A
lingering look.
A
shivering exit,
Close
up the book.
Uncontrolled
anger,
Vented
in haste.
An
ending regretted
What... a... waste...
