Freeverse 154

11/6/19

I hear there exists a landfill that contains only clocks
with rusting dusty metal and hour hands arthritic
I could search there for the time that we lost
to try and put back together the seconds and minutes
but you know me and know I've never been too handy
and accidently break things further when I try to fix them sadly
but I have to try for us so I trek to the fabled landfill
and discover the clocks aren't broken after all but just at a standstill
with the wind at my back I wind all the clocks
and confidently walk out as the watchdogs watch
