Wednesday (revision)

9:30 AM

Light shown through the blinds

TV snow so much colder

time for me to wake

 

10:40 AM

Drizzle guttering

Acrid smell of wet asphalt

Saturated ground

 

10:50 AM

Cakes of cruel design

balanced only by piping

hot coffee; Awake!

 

11:10 AM

The gray fluorescence

of humming fixtures drones on.

When can I leave here?

 

Ten minutes of work

has felt like hours; itching

release yields no scratch.

 

3:40 PM

The sun is shining,

yet the rain is still falling.

Lunch is far too short

 

9:30 PM

It’s now pitch outside

and there’s nothing on TV.

Just wasting my time.

 

Thieving restlessness.

Boredom has sticky fingers

sly enough to steal.

 

10:30 PM

Light off the cover

Sharing a cigarette with

The night; time for bed
