just one more minute’s snooze
or rise before dawn cues

And Essence for Day 20 of Jane Dougherty’s Daily Essence Poem Challenge. My internal clock is still rebelling against the daylight saving time change. This was the view of the window from my pillow when my alarm clock went off at 6 am. The days are not long enough yet. Or maybe I am getting too close to retirement to maintain the grind. Five more years and counting…unless the government decides to raise the retirement age…or take away social security benefits…or both. Until them I am a prisoner of the clock next to my bed and the time clock at the office. π¦ But when I am off the clock…oh…then I write! π

I agree. We definitely work too hard in the US. 40 – 70 Hours per week, and for very little reward. The oligarch’s reap the benefit of our labor.

Such is capitalism. Some people like it. The people who profit and become billionaires, and the cretins who think they could too if they just had that lucky break.

So true. I am happy with a roof over my head and a few creature comforts like food, indoor plumbing and WiFi. π

So heartfelt – you put your finger on that sense of time running through your fingers, doing something you don’t want to do. And how lovely it is when you CAN snooze !
