Monday 14:38pm

Monday drinking never escapes me,

when the hordes of acronyms

are reassigned to their cubicles,

pushing pens and flagging emails

busy performing slow death rituals,

meticulously

until they meet their intolerable end, 

who will be there to send their 

oh, so very important communique?

not me, it’s a Monday 

and I’ll be drinking,

life’s simple pleasures 

come in small measures,

straight, no ice
