February: Still Still
Almost a week after Mid-Month Monday
in the second month of the barely New Year,
he wakes up wondering why he even bothers;
wondering how things might turn out differently
if only he could sleep longer, better, not wake up
feeling badly broken and behind the times;
not wake up feeling worried and worn
or hassled, harassed and hurried;
not feeling totally half-assed,
like he’ll never be ready
to rise from his bed
or even try
to try.
