A Dance Of Cock Poem by Ezio Olubelleau

Time went out a-fast,
In a dance of cock,
A time keeper thought a-cast,
He danced a-knock a rock.

A knock tapping quickly a-cock,
On a dreamy Wednesday morn,
While I was napping, a tap came a-shock,
'Who is it? ' I shed my slumber, and time a-gone.

'Who is it? ' that stormed a-door,
Perhaps a melodic dancer or a griot,
When I opened my chamber door,
I witness a feast, a dance a-cock and a riot.

'Who are you? ' to storm my sleep a-tempt,
The time keeper dances 'nemesis, a turn',
And the morn grew to night by the sept, I accept.
Time went out a-fast, my sleep return
