M O N D a Y

m o n d a y



It’s a slow
part of Monday
the bone
other days discard

But for Monday
it’s what you have

Times takes
extra breaks
on Mondays

it dawdles
in the hall
takes the stairs

no sense
of urgency, 
Monday

the day is arrogant
Mondays do not care
unlike Wednesday
which can be
sympathetic

Under the right
conditions

Monday
is a Nazi
and we’re
all Jews
