Late into the night it was
Well beyond midnight I thought
In chaos, some peace I sought
But feared it was a lost cause
So I scampered and scurried
Of fleeting time, I worried
This was my only big chance
Just a few hours until dawn
Then I would be dead and gone
And from a noose, I would dance
So I dug, fast as I could
‘Neath the floor right where I stood
Tired and torn, I sat to rest
Staring at the looming clock
What I saw gave me a shock
Thought it was some crazy test
The hour hand now moved behind
And mode was set to “Rewind”
On this magic, I relied
Cast away dread, and burrowed
Soon I was on open road
With a new time on my side
There, a man waited for me
In my ear, he hissed “you’re free”…
