she's most afraid
of waking up, of opening her eyes
to watch the clock's hands
as she gets up from bed, goes
to eat breakfast, to work, to eat lunch,
returns to work, returns home to change,
drives downtown to meet with her
and eat again, to fall asleep
with the girl by her side
and her eyes still open
watching the clock's hands
of waking up, of opening her eyes
to watch the clock's hands
as she gets up from bed, goes
to eat breakfast, to work, to eat lunch,
returns to work, returns home to change,
drives downtown to meet with her
and eat again, to fall asleep
with the girl by her side
and her eyes still open
watching the clock's hands
