The time would be 3:00, had it not been hidden behind the countdown

The wavering vrrrrrrrrrrrrr of the microwave is not enough to wake
The naive parental mind, causing the ideal image to break

The ping
Of the microwave waits
4
Torn between warmth and fear

It is this moment when the panic sets in,
lunges
for the door
and
stabs
the miniature metallic square
The pop of door
The stench of soggy noodles
And so she is safe
Until another 3:00
