Time was never on my side
Always conspiring against me
Singing whispering
Shouting in the background
Noises off, if only
I could turn noises off.
The thoughts in my head
not my own space,
lord give me space,
Give me peace
Give me patience
1 minute and 15 seconds of bedlam

Interesting how the time restriction made so many people think of time. Liked this.
oooh... that's intense... like the slightly maniacle edge. dumping stuff in a five minute episode is an excellent idea.. as regards to the copy and pasting dilemma, there's a couple of blogs i follow who have writing challenges and they have a gadget called a mr linky, basically somewhere the participants put their own links up. (views from raven's nest on our bloglist has one for the wordzzle thing, not sure how you get it though).. :-)
7pm Post duly posted!

PS to my previous comment: meant to say sorry it's a prose cop out! It's just what my head was full of when I started scribbling.
You're smokin'!!
Thanks Titus,I was disappointed with my own but delighted (and a little bit amazed)with all the others.
Hey watercats, glad you liked the idea.That Mr Linky gadget sounds reaaly handy.It nearly killed me doing it the hard way.The feckin computer(the dell from hell) kept freezing too.
Good man Mr River-run !
Bad woman Rachel! Only messing,tomorrow will be fine.Have ye read the others? They're feckin good!
And you're in trouble! Where's your poem, Willow? Well?
Oh indeed I am hard of remembering, but I just visited Weaver's blog and so have done it right now, well, not now, a few moments ago, well, a few more than a few moments ago now..... I don't understand about links but the link to my blog is

Okay, TFE, it's 6:55 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, a little early, I know, but here I go:
First day of classes
Signed my contract
so there'll be money paid
for the smiles I give
the smiles I receive,
for fears released
and grade point averages
increased.
I'm happy, a bit tired
but filled with joy...
I love my job, a gift for sure.
Wish I had your phone number, cuz then I could call you up at 12:05 a.m. on Tuesday morning and sing very softly, hey TFE...it's 7:05 p.m. here in Connecticut....I did it...on time...wake up...
wv: glishyro: What TFE might say when he answered the phone at 12:05 a.m. on Tuesday morning.
Well done BT, you pulled it out of the fire!
Well done Jeanne, nice work and tanks a million for joining in. we're hoping to have one of them new-fangled telephone machines installed in the kitchen. ( so cook can answer it )
I don't sleep, sleep is for losers. :)
Great idea, and wow, great poem by yourself Mr.
Thank you for the experiment
Thanks Mrs Niamh,I'm surprised how well it went and that the pieces were so complete.Join in the next one?
Hello TFE,
Just popped in via Weaver to see what a few of the folks I know have been up to. You are setting interesting challenges. I hope you find plenty of the peace and patience you were seeking.
Remembered to do it this afternoon. Posted here.
