Premedicated

This must be an accident,
have I set a precedent?
is there something that
Monday's not telling me?

It's six of the clock plus three
plus me 
and far too light in the day 
I may even float off and away
to where yonder lies.

Or is this a parable of the 
traveller
inconsolable on
Monday?

Whatever
it's never good news 
to 
the one who's 
listening.
