Scramble out of bed
Scrambled thoughts &
scrambled eggs
Coffee fueled with tired legs

Running through appointment logs
Running through the morning news
Running in place
Running for your life in the corporate race

Morning chatter in a rickety bus -
kicking up specks of earthly dust
You're a thirty second note -
in search of a score
A corner office wannabe chained to --                                                  
your chores ...
