Leap Second Poem by Ima Ryma

Leap Second



Tiz time to make another leap,
Another leap second of time.
'Experts' say that it's done to keep
Time pure without reason or rhyme.
Astronomical time from big
Versus atomic time from small
Gives 'experts' excuse for the gig
Of wasting time 'splaining it all.
Most humans don't care about it,
Unless computer systems crash,
And human wallets take a hit.
All time comes down to costing cash.

Tiz time to take a second look
At time and money 'experts' took.
