Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Loud Stupid Infomercial

Coffee at 3 a.m. 
But why?
To dunk the cookies.
Are you sleeping?  
Are you on your meds?
This is irritating.
Shut up!

Loud stupid infomercial woke me up.
Slicing. Dicing. Chop. Chop. Best carving tool in the world.
Only nineteen, ninety-nine.
Damn!


So here I am, drinking coffee at 3 a.m.
Prudent to on one else.
Does not even make sense to me.
Okay, maybe a bit I decide as
I reach for my next cookie to dunk in the hot stuff.

Caren Krutsinger September 17, 2018 at 8:12 PM Why does it always come on a hundred times louder than it should and always at three a.m.?
