Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

The Witching Hour

I wake up at three every morning
The witching hour
Is it the cat?
Or something else?

Maybe it is so I can have some thinking time
Before the others get up.
I hear a voice smirk.
You live alone silly!

If you think I can go back to sleep now
You are as crazy as I am.
