7 O'clock

Sorry I'm not ready,
I should be- but I'm not.
the fact that schools tomorrow?
Can it honestly just... not.
I woke up after twelve today,
I read well into dawn.
The stories blossom in the night
(Even when I yawn).
To wake up hours earlier
(hey, I like my sleep)
And sit there muted for the day 
without a single peep? Nope.
And alllll the classes
Alllll the homework
Gosh and alllll the tests?
I knew I had a week of it,
but I could use some rest!
Just thinking of the next few weeks
has given me a headache,
I know we just had break and all
but to wake at half paste eight
And sit and learn
Recite, return
the papers and the projects,
All before mid-day at best?
(I do not like this logic!)
yes I want to zoom some friends
Learn things from now and then,
But possibly- can all this happen -
After 1pm?

  • A Space Among The Stars

    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to get binoculars
    To see the dentist on the moon
    And find the next Uber at noon.
    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.
  • Frost

    Its fingers were hot
    and cold and
    sweet and dark.
    All at the same time.

    Sleeeeep. 

    It whispered in her ear.
    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
