Snooze
by Chris Sorrenti
wrapped cozy
in box spring cocoon
safe from winter’s insults
my reality is rudely awoken
by a piercing
BEEP BEEP BEEP...
too stoned of slumber
the numbers on clock radio
uncountable
I am rescued in absentia...
my illiterate fingers
desperately reach
with false confidence
pressing OFF
instead of SNOOZE...
