Time and Again


It’s time…
to stuff olives with alligator hides
time to…
ride the stegosaurus home
time to…
bathe the baby in butter
It’s time…
to write poems which rhyme
time to…
set the bumble bees free
time to…
race turtles down the freeway
It’s time…
to count the chickens before they hatch
time to…
smother the forest in liquid smoke
time to…
write home in red crayon
It’s time…
to dig up Nirvana in the backyard
time to…
read the Bhagavad Gita in braille
time to…
deconstruct Frank Lloyd Wright
It’s time…
to fast at the bottom of the Grand Canyon
time to…
lick the lollipop cactus
time to…
hold kangaroo court for pandas
It’s time…
to watch Petticoat Junction re-runs
time to...
to flush paper mache toilets
time to…
treat hemorrhoids with respect.

Time...time...time...
there is never enough,
too much on your hands,
time to knock-off all this bullshit.

Break time is over...
It’s time to get back to work!
