Is there a local greasy spoon where you live?

I had a moment of dissonance at that one because "greasy spoon" always makes me think of American diners!

I wasted time, and now doth time waste me.

Yay chiasmus! This one is so simple and effective. (I particularly noticed the simplicity and monosyllables because I spent the morning trying to make an iambic pentameter sestina and despairing at my automatic tendency toward long abstract Latinate too-many-feet-taking-up words that end in -tion - and -ment and such and, in the case where one ended a line, super easy of course to repeat six times in creative punchy ways.... *headdesk*)
