Kim Rodrigues Poet Free verse

Against the Clock

snores,
  wakes up,
     snores,
       wakes up. . .
pinches spouse
rolls back to sleep
face grows red as a flaming sun
eyes
  open
    close
      open
        close
    rolls
lover on the punch bag floor
alarm
  laughs
    dial
  spins
its dreams dramatic
