Sunday

 

cold morning light surrounds me

sweet chips of birds abounding

perfect contents for a lazy day

the calm before the big parade



a week of fine acting, overt displays

playing a part in a chekhov play

a character i can't quite define

making me likely to tweak a line



i may play different functions in each scene

but it's on account of new knowledge gleaned

and ambiguities abounding

in all this blue surrounding



yet i must go on if time's to keep

to take life by its reins after i sleep

i've got to persevere, stay on track

show the world my kind of comeback



so i hunker down and tell myself

"it's just another week..."

"it's just another week..."
