Now THIS is truly a great riddle!...
The envy of many a surgeon, I always succeed. I use neither scalpel, nor stitch, but am often the greatest of needs. Not your dollar, nor cent, as many believe, And you might say I depart first class…whenever I leave. In urgency, you often refer to my height. I am the abundance of many a prisoner, their focus and activity each day and night. I admit to being impatient, if you know what I mean, And perhaps never will I ever be subject to your elusive machine.
What am I?

Time Thats correct, Lou. Good call.. - And here's an explanation of it... --- ....I am Time. -Time, unlike surgeons has a 100% 'success rate' being that it is said that 'Time heals all wounds.' -Also, Time uses no scalpel, stitches to close these wounds, (referring to physical wounds here), but it is often the greatest of needs for the healing process. -Here Time opposes the common expression 'Time is money.' (It really isn't). -When you think of leaving by way of 'first class' you think flight. So it is with Time. 'Time flies.' -When a matter is urgent, many say 'Time is short,' short being a term used in reference to one's height. -People in prison are referred to as 'doing Time' and many of them have lots of it! -How is Time 'impatient'? Well, 'Time waits for no man.' -Perhaps Time will never be made subject to a Time Machine. But, then again, who knows?
