Sunday Night

Measuring

All of the breaths

I take.

One after the other.

Savoring them,

Making them last.

Wishing time

Would draw itself

Out.

Staving off

The inevitable dread.

Knowing that people

Will be scowling

At me

When I return

To the breathless world

First thing Monday morning.
