Dappled sunlight mingles with beeps,
Springs and sleep-addled bones creak,
Drip-drops coat soft-skinned face,
Worn false teeth crunch toast,
Hiccups escape,
Engine revs,
Cars screech,
Honk,
Door squeaks,
Colleagues groan,
Lunch warms, splatters,
Time passes, five rings,
Tires hiss and hasten home,
Everything calms and owls hoot,
Soft moonlight cascades over zzzzz.
