These days
When you
Are three
Or four
And maybe
Even five
Days are days
There is
No Tuesday or
Wednesday
Or Thursday
Or Saturday
Or the delight
Of a Friday
Or the dread
Of a Sunday
Night
But these
Days
Named
After things
We no-longer know
Or
do
The space between
Them
Shortens
The idea of them
Lengthens
And yet
With fear
And excitement
They spin
Endlessly on
Regardless
Thorough
In their self importance
Of the minute
Neglectful
Instantly
Once they are
Spent
Knowing
They will
Be back again
Next week
Whichever
Way you
Hoped
Your life
Would
Work
Out
