Miro Alarm Clock

by Alison Ross


Miro Alarm Clock/tells time backwards/and yells to the bastards/"time is a construct!"/a design/of the mind.


Miro Alarm Clock/tells time to go to hell/and rings the bells of hell/it sings and swells/to the rhythms/of the Book of Kells. 


Miro Alarm Clock/tells time all the time/but then sells time for a dime/and chimes rhymes/posing as time. 


Miro Alarm Clock/mimes the motion of time/as it crawls into the slime/the primordial muck/where time is sucked/into a demonic deconstruct. 


Miro Alarm Clock/arms itself with a Glock/and shoots time into space/becoming cosmic waste.
