Stole a bit of time.
Tricked the machine
into giving up a moment.
Something just for me.
Of course,
it wasn’t perfect,
we are all flawed
by degrees,
but a moment’s peace
in this world,
is priceless,
I believe.
Never long enough,
there is only one rest
that comes to take us.
No,
not yet
No time to forget
Now is the time for waking.
Come up out of
your little nest.
Time to clear your mind.
Time to clear head.
Stole a moment;
now we wake the dead.
We need all of the help
we can get.
