 there are two things all adults fight daily, every minute & every year

the needle, and ,  a line in the sand

the needle always moves faster than you want

and the line in the sand is always a bit closer than you want

the Twelmot formula

The __ _ ___. 
However, __ ___ ___. 
Octopuses __ ___ __. 
Tentacles __ _ ___ __. 
Alarmingly, __ _ ___ __. 
Thus, __ __ __.



The wall has writing 
However, who is there to read it  
Beasts pounce on the unwary  
Claws rending  meaning from medium 
Alarmingly, there is proliferation of impotent media
Thus, the market never clears 


 
The weekend had  come. 
However, Twelmot continued to be hunched over his console, muzak on. 
The Installation was  still  down. 
Repairbots trundled around,bobbing as they crossed over wires . 
Alarmingly, only one node reported green. 
Thus, when the Commandant arrived, everybody else had fled the scene.


The man in the suit and tie continued to dance on the roof. 
However, the girl with lights on her shoes had disappeared.
Piles of electronic equipment lay on the pavement .
Speakers stacked ,stood silently .
Alarmingly, Twelmot couldn't remember where he'd left his repairbot.
Thus, twilight found him wandering round the speakers ,mumbling.
