A new blog begins
The next week the laptop breaks
The cycle's complete.

Sunday. No work calls.
Four forty-five. I relax.
The phone chimes. Dammit.

Saturday. Paint nails,

Visit friends for baby’s birthday,

Leave early to work.

If only my job

Came with delineated

Time off. Head, meet table.

I swipe my card, but
The gate's still stubbornly closed.
Thanks, security.

My work ringtone soothes,
Allegedly. The truth is,
Nothing helps those calls.

Snake curls in the sun.

But wait, Mother Nature's cruel;

Flies gather to feast.

Warm October sky

Little birds of autumn drift

Mistaken, leaves fall
