About Time

I finally gave Time a time-out.

I put him in the corner

to stare at the wall

while I slow down

and catch my breath.

No more chasing after him

day after day

like a mindless fool

running here and there

just to keep up.

From now on

he can wait for me.

I’ve had it with his

spoiled ways, endless demands,

and constant need for attention.

I finally put him his place,

stood him in the corner

and let him know

this time my Time 

is in time-out.
