Quotidian
 
From fitful sleep, I spring alive,
Dislodging night’s distress before 
My iPhone clock rings out at 5.
I rouse my flock and voice rapport,

Dislodging night’s distress before
Embarking on my work-bound drive.
I rouse my flock and voice rapport
With traffic woes when I arrive. 

Embarking on my work-bound drive
To stem the email flow, I war
With traffic woes, when I arrive
Upon despair. How grand’s this chore

To stem the email flow? I war 
With fitful sleep, then spring alive
Upon despair I’ll quell before
My iPhone clock rings out at 5.
