My Garage Sale One-Dollar Mister Spock Clock

 

All stern he is, in science department blue

Behind the clear face of an old-fashioned clock

An hour hand, a minute hand, a sweep hand too

Orbiting around our wise Mister Spock

 

Behind his back a motor, made in Taiwan

Powered by a double-A Duracell

Counts the minutes and hours as they drag on

(There is no dilithium fuel cell)

 

Spock scans for me the starndate, no fuss at all

Always at his post on my office wall
