Sleepy Couch

. I'm jarred and jolted up from a snoring sleep by my old cranky alarm clock's clang and beep. My legs they disobey me, can't make them move. My coarse hair stands stiff in the old Einstein groove. All the blurred way to the light switch by the door, I stagger down what seems like a mile or more. But every bone joint in me screams: arrgh and ouch! So I drop myself back on my sleepy couch. . .
