My watch, a testament to Time, ticks tenaciously. The delicate click of teeth meeting tooth; the beat of a miniature heart. A resonance I recognize from elsewhere-
The mouse lay shivering in the warmth of my palm
The miniscule vessels, chambers, and veins; struggling to pump the precious fluid that slows with every life-shattering breath.
Yes, it is-undoubtedly-the insignificant vibrations of the mouse's beating heart that sound so alike to the timepiece that touches my very veins- both ticking down the time they have left; becoming unwound.

Cosmic winder of new life
Seeing mouse and watch in strife
Winds them up with cat's nine lives
And nine more for chimes past fives -
Each new day when clock strikes mark
Watch chimes happy hearts to spark,
Heartbeat racing, sinews tight...
Love of life is in your sight!
