The Neighbourhood Watch.

I grew up in a poor neighbourhood. We only had one watch - a Timex with one hand missing - and we shared it between seven families. Our family got to wear it on Wednesdays.

I am a clock without hands
No one understands this
That when the autumn comes
I see no reason for a fall
Spring can fail to move me
With its tulips and its clover
Now the time for love is over
I am a clock without hands
I'm just tickin' and that's all

- Nanci Griffith

"You are old, father William," the young man said,
"And your hair has become very white;
And yet you incessantly stand on your head —
Do you think, at your age, it is right?"
