Taking the time

Taking the time to talk the talk.

Taking the time to teach the taught.

Taking the time to test the thought.

Taking the time to tell the thoughts.

Taking the time to touch the top.

Tapping the tip to the toughest tops.

Taking the time to tell the truth.

Timing the testimonial truths.

Taking the time to topple the tyrants.

Theoretically toppling tyrants? timeless.

Taking the time to tally the ticks.

Tallying ticks that treat thee to tricks.
