A poem.

So I had some time waiting in line at the Edinburgh Castle (which is amazing-www.edinburghcastle.gov.uk)
And so I wrote this poem about time, also because last
week's blog actually came out this week so yeah timings a bit strange..

Oh man oh man oh mighty man
You are so swift and sneaky
Mr Time is your name, you were here when we began
Back when the dinosaurs were creepy

Oh shit! 
We say, is it August already?
I'm still poor and I have no six-pack
Ah Mr Time, ya doodle, you go by so slippery
And of course we can't turn you back.

Oh man oh man oh mighty man
Days turn into weeks weekly
And those wasted minutes on Instagram 
Add up, and, WTF? 
It's January.

 Awkward!
Hashtag, my last blog was late
And this is the next one here now
Ah Mr Time, ya bludger, I was delayed now you berate
And in this poem I'm trying to compensate somehow.

But the rhythm didn't work, what's the time signature? 
I don't know, Mr Time, so how DO you measure
The moments and the minutes and the milliseconds and months
When the ticking of the clock becomes the sound of a thump 
Coz

Boom! 
Oh bugger 
My alarm bumped my head
It's too late for a blog
So this poem should do instead.
