I find
waking
at 2am
provides
a convenient window
for two or three hours
of pondering
on my myriad shortcomings
as a husband,
father,
teacher,
writer,
musician
and human being
Conveniently uninterrupted
by the slightest opportunity
to do anything
about any of them.

I find
waking
at 2am
provides
a convenient window
for two or three hours
of pondering
on my myriad shortcomings
as a husband,
father,
teacher,

and human being
Conveniently uninterrupted
by the slightest opportunity
to do anything
about any of them.
