Work

When things were easy, I'd ask myself all sorts of difficult questions.
I had the time and the energy to think things through.
I'd wake up at noon and ask myself something like,
"Why can't the pleasure I derive from my dreams
Be stored in me for use throughout the day?"
And just because I had the time,
I would stay in bed and try to figure it out.
Now, I wake up at seven,
And I ask myself, "Why can't I stay in bed?"--
A relatively easy question to answer,
Which I do, every day, with a grunt and a sigh.
