Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEAF AGHG AIJI

A Clock Stopped Not The Mantel'sA
Geneva's farthest skillB
Can't put the puppet bowingC
That just now dangled stillB
-
An awe came on the trinketD
The figures hunched with painE
Then quivered out of decimalsA
Into degreeless noonF
-
It will not stir for doctorsA
This pendulum of snowG
The shopman importunes itH
While cool concernless NoG
-
Nods from the gilded pointersA
Nods from the seconds slimI
Decades of arrogance betweenJ
The dial life and himI
