Nette Onclaud Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Bring Friday On

Numb yawn of early Friday crawls
Through drowsy hours, a mind jangles
It twitches and shakes from weariness. Void.

  By 6 am, my still world remains catatonic...

Gradually, exotic birds ( perhaps) tweet
An acapella of sounds ensues
Including the cat meowing its anthem:

Facial mask melting; slit eyes open
  My body tumbl ing on edge of bedspread --
I know it's Friday...
    tea time with self cancelled
So, here's a shout out: 
   I got you, last day of work
   No blazing sun,   time will jerk
 Give me the blues...
  You'll later pay the dues!
