Enigma Weekend Edition: Poetry by Kim Harris
"Alarm Awakens"
by Kim Harris
Alarm
awakens,
Time begins
again,
Drowsy
zombies
overtake our
once lively
bodies.
Roam the
halls for the
fifth
time this
week.
Think,
write, leave, repeat.
The purpose
is the object
of question.
The routine
becomes
engrained
in our tired
minds.
We yearn
for a
break.
To rest our
minds and hands.
But,
our request
isn’t fulfilled,
And we start
over again
the next
week.
