More Tragedy Than Comedy

Time

Drips
   Drips
       Drips

Out the seconds
Like drops of pitch

Slowly
     Slowly
         Slowly

When I am watching
A school performance
That my kid
Is not in.

A Matter of Time

It was a matter of time.

Lego, Lego.
Tick, tick.

Reading, reading.
Tick, tick.

Baseball, baseball.
Tick, tick.

Piano, piano.
Tick, tick.

Climb tree, climb tree.
Tick, tick.

Time from the start of summer vacation to the first,
"I'M BORED"
less than 4 hours.
