Weekend Eve

Friday afternoon
Weekend starting very soon
Is it five o’clock?

Office Morning

Empty coffee cup.
Catching up on all my mail.
There’s a meeting soon.

Sadness is still here.
House is now one dog quieter.
Seems very quiet.

Start with coffee time.
Shower, shave, traffic, office.
Meetings, work, traffic.

Bird seed is tasty.
Mom yelled at me about it.
It is still tasty.

Two glorious days.
All work is just forgotten.
Needs many more days.

It’s only Thursday?
Monday was a holiday.
Should be Friday now.

Long difficult month.
Poetry will help you heal.
Peace until next year.

Low background noises.
Thinking about weekend plans.
Someone called my name.

I need food. Much food.
I need to sleep until food.
I need food. Much food.
