If you're reading this for the thousandth time,
the clock ticking ever on,
the time marked out in white numerals at the bottom of the screen,
ignore me.
Go back to work.
But if you're reading this and the movie's over,
the clock having skipped a beat,
the morning peaking through the window,
WAKE UP *****
Ask someone what the color is today,
wear your special satchel bag
and new skirt like a uniform with tinsel woven in.
One of the speeches is labeled -
"Piece of **** that Better Work."
The other one is yours,
"New Speech," it says,
even though it's two months old.
Look in your backpack for the incomplete worksheet,
hopefully it's in the pink binder
where you left it.
Don't forget your sister after school and feed the cats before you leave.
Sincerely,
Yourself
