A/N – This isn't an A/N regarding the following poem, but rather one regarding the programme 24 itself. Today was the day we found out that 24 is to be cancelled, although there are plans for a movie. This doesn't mean that I or many others will stop writing fanfiction, and I hope to see 24 fanfics being written and uploaded to this site for many years to come. Everyone involved with the show from the actors to the writers to the directors made the show great, and it is thanks to them that we get to create our own stories around these characters. 24 will be missed, but let's keep the fanfiction going.

24 little hours, a day in the life

An agent named Jack, fighting for his nation

Starting with a fateful end, the loss of his wife

Friends become enemies, enemies become corpses

Can he hear the clock ticking away in constant movement

24 little hours, a day in the life

When words from Nina's mouth they flowed for safety

He found a woman, and with Kate he fell in love

Starting with a fateful end, the loss of his wife

But the love of a needle lost him the love of a woman

And he killed the woman whose words had found him that love

24 little hours, a day in the life

A new start, across the land to the east

A new love, a new job, a new start soon fell down

Starting with with a fateful end, the loss of his wife

Now he has the chance to settle down and play the grandpa

Will the ghosts grant him his final wish

24 little hours, a day in the life

Starting with that fateful end, loss of his wife
