What is that ringing I hear inside my head?
It must be the alarm clock I
set beside my bed.
As I ask myself what they ever made them for, I hit the little button for fifteen minutes more.
Now I'll pull the blanket up and tuck the pillow beneath my head, and think about how good it feels to lay here in my bed.
Instead of having the same dream I had before, I'm thinking about the alarm clock with just ten minutes more.
Now my head is hurting and my throat is feeling sore.
This always happens with just five minutes more.
What a joke that button on the top,
just another angle to get the sound to stop.
Ringing again? The alarm clock I assume.
Tomorrow I think I'll just toss it across the room!
