The Great

By Jacob A. Howard

A Great; a voice. A halcyon tune.

Calling time's edge nearer and nigh.

A whimsical whistling, hark!

Hark. It sounds again as it wishes away

 the Great.

A great; a tune. A stentorian voice.

Beckoning with a hum the time beneath;

Beneath the clock that chimes away.

Chimes away and wishes away

the Great.

To hear; to hark. That voice; that tune.

To wish away the Great, would be:

Would be a bomb in design.

A bomb displaced and replaced by

the Great.

With the two objects,

in holy contradiction,

To say them both would fail.

Would fail a devised plan,

A warranted plan,

A plan created by He, Himself.

A plan by:

the Great.

As always, your host,
