10 seconds past 8:02
I left my house unaware,
Ignorant of watch and clock.
Fleeing my home with uncombed hair,
I saw it pass the block.
I saw the streak of orange yellow,
10 seconds and 30 feet ahead,
And a useless plea I did bellow,
“STOP, STOP, I JUST LEFT BED”
So I acted on one option,
The one I did not plan,
Whose soreness plagued me post-adoption,
I ran.
