When did time
become that thing

we allowed
to micro manage
the many lives
we seemingly
live in a day.

Tick! Waking.
Tock? Eating.

Tick! Commuting.
Tock? Schooling.

Tick! Working.
Tock? Paying.

Til one day; you turn
your calendar self off
&
sleep in like its Saturday
for a month.

Eating only when  hungry.

While drinking coffee
at midnight as you write.

Because tomorrows
a Saturday.
