Pounding Headache (Doggie Palace, Day 2)

Pounding Headache

Two men with sledgehammers pound concrete
I wish that they could find a beat.

One taps and taps with peckish meter
while the other is a beater!

Tap tap tap in jerky hops
While bam bam bam just never stops.

I know I am unreasonable,
My complaints are treasonable.

Construction can’t be done in mime,
I only wish they’d pound in time!
