Circadian Disruption
Maples disrobe
bedraggled crimson in the shadows
of a feeble sun. Hedgehogs rest
beneath last season’s rumpled throw.
I recline on my sofa, craving
carbohydrates and sunbeams.
Staggering to the window, I draw
the drapes across perpetual twilight.
Lethargy overwhelms as I slump
deeper into my pillows, intermittently
drifting away, until -
sun blinks through the maples,
arms newly buttoned with buds.
Its rays weave a shawl around
my shoulders. When the hedgehog
crawls out from his dishevelled bed
I rise --
and throw back the curtains.

Daylight dwindles, as maples disrobe
bedraggled crimson in the shadows
