Time Is Oxygen by Ludovic443(m): 1:25am On Jul 25, 2020
TIME IS OXYGEN

The everyday routine we look at the top wall,
We walk every day looking at the wrist,
We don't have; we asked the next door,
We lose it; we lose the day,
All because we have become a slave.

Everyday routine it dictates to us,
When to start and when to stop,
When to sleep and when to wake,
When to work and when to play,
All because it gives us meaning.

TIME: Tik Tok, I move with three men,
One and two I count in digital,
The day is going; I say to the world.

As it goes on it gives hope,
When it passes we lament,
As days pass by we look at the wall and wrist,
It has been crowned we are slave,
When it is exhausted we return to the clay.
