Waiting For The Work Week To Begin

Waiting for the working week to begin Impatience rules The largest quasar cluster has been discovered Four hundred billion light years across Its sunny but cold after a week of rain Morning davvening has been done Breakfast has been accomplished If without full satisfaction Errands delayed must be done The pharmacy first of all A call may come taking me to another work I have a plan of the work I must do The manuscript I must correct And so far have avoided- The week must begin But I am reluctant to begin in it I will walk out now to the pharmacy I will be in the sun I will waste time though a poem might come But when will I really work? Or will I delay? The working week must begin sometime Though I have had many weeks in which I never really have begun- Time is not on my side I am seventy years old Still the sun is shining outside- Whether the week has begun or not I imagine the largest quasar cluster is not any smaller Four hundred billion light years And I will never even journey through one of them- Nonetheless I will soon go out walking to the pharmacy The week in work still not yet begun.
