THURSDAY FOREVER

there was a knock
on the door
it was Thursday


"What are you doing
here?" I demanded
"Today is Monday...all day!"


"I know...I know!" it cried
"I got thrown out
of the week!"


"What are you going
to do?" I asked
"Move in with you!" it sighed


"For how long!"
I now cried
"For as long as it takes...!"


Thursday didn't say
what "it" was
how can this be?


"Oh!" I smiled
weakly and again
"Oh!"


Thursday smiled
weekly "Knew you
would see sense


it's been over
a year now and
Thursday wasn't going anywhere


it never takes out
the trash or does
the dishes or shops


it slops about
the house watchig
daytime TV soaps


it does nothing  but
be Thursday
Thursday forever
