Clock On The Wall is a Crooked Clock, poem by Michael Lee Johnson, Itasca, IL.

The Clock on the Wall is a Crooked Clock, by Michael Lee Johnson, is a poem directly or indirectly evolving out of my memories of my notions of what the Vietnam War was about and the fears generated, and surrounding it at the time. The strange part is minute ruminates of it existed back in 1976 but was nothing more than scribble on yellow paper tossed in a forgotten box. This poem didn't really evolve into anything meaningful till 2011-it has a rather late appearance will now joining my other Vietnam Era related poems.
