Written for Ovi Poetry Challenge 60.
‘Haste’ is our inspiration. Here’s my Ovi.
Haste makes waste, I’ve heard it said
Why get up? I’ll stay in bed
It’s August! The office is dead
Good day to sleep in
Push the snooze, catch more ZZ’s
How I wish I could make time freeze
Loll around doing as I please
I’m just so very tired
Phone is ringing off the hook
Guess I should go take a look
But instead I throw a book
My boss left a message
You forgot about the meeting
Future customer was seething
It’s too late now, he is leaving
You blew it, pal
Do not bother coming back
Forget your stuff; someone will pack
And one more thing, you’re fired Jack
Think I’ll catch forty winks
