This post is in response to July Writing Prompts by A Slapdash Talk.
Today’s prompt is – “Tick, tock, tick” and this poem of mine is an attempt to describe the horrors of a “timely” clock and an “untimely” murder by a psychotic serial killer on the loose! It’s good to stir up things sometimes, right?
