Early mornings

Angele Toomey Avatar

Not much of an intro today, more flow of thoughts about mornings.

Mornings are not that great
The early birds, they say, get the worms
But I don't want to deal with the wiggle and squirm.
Anyway, you can get tablets for that.

I imagine sunrise is just a sunset
in reverse, so I'd rather
stay in bed
For a few more minutes rest.

Caffeine is my friend
When I need to send
My body through the rituals
That enable me to appear somewhat punctual.

Mornings are hard
And I'd prefer to continue to sleeping
after a night of tossing and turning.

I don't think I will ever to used to them
All that bird song twitter and timetable mayhem and...
people smiling. The humanity!

Yes, I don't like mornings
because despite what the larks say,
Morning aren't that great.
Just a sunset in reverse
