The Nine to Five Writer

It is knowing this body must endure

something more than

a regular nine to five -

without flipping a lid.

No losing your temper,

feeling bad,

or relaxing

for eight hours,

every single day,

five days

mercilessly

in sequence

perpetually.

Though

fear not!

For, two days are rewarded.

Two days of

kind-of-stay-here-we-need-you-for-your-job-later

freedom.

So here is to Sunday,

Monday's ugly cousin.
