Saturday

I woke up this morning Before the rooster started crowing Without even knowing What the day held out for me Turning on the lamplight Wiping sleep from my eyes Waving my bed goodbye As the floor reached for my feet Two or three cups of coffee I'm thinking ought to do me Right about now justly As I ready myself to leave With the keys in my left hand The right attitude of yes I can Take this world on like a man Just you wait and see I bring with me my "A" game It's a lot like "B" but less lame Otherwise they'd both be the same Which doesn't make sense to me I stumble out to my car As I no longer walk that far Used to but not anymore The age of modern day conveniency Into traffic I merge Under other drivers select verbs Most of them 4 letter words That cause my ears to bleed Make it to the job on time Earlier than expected I find Somewhere along the way lost my mind As it is Saturday
