Notes About The Poem

Two o'clock pm

best time ever for a nap

eyes glazing over.


Maybe some coffee

will ward off the impending

risk to my income.


Twenty short minutes

of break from day spinnits

would help me perform.


Unfortunately

unconventionality

is workplacely scorned.

Is It Friday Yet

Two o'clock pm
best time ever for a nap
eyes glazing over.

Maybe some coffee
will ward off the impending
risk to my income.

Twenty short minutes
of break from office spinnits
would help me perform.

Unfortunately
unconventionality
is workplacely scorned.

I told my boss I'd give back one of my weeks of vacation if I could take a 40 minute nap in the afternoon He said no. Tony
