no time

i'm trying so hard
to make better use of
my time. i'm intimidated
though by the likes
of oprah and dr. phil, who
get so much done in
a day. i can barely
get up to go to work
to make a living to eek
out this life, such
as it is. and then
the constant need for
coffee, driving up there,
and the time wasted
on reading the news,
and television, and
sports, the phone keeps
ringing and there are
so many loose ends to
be tied up, not to
mention the laundry
and vacuuming. i almost
have no time for my nap
let alone saving the world
and adopting children,
recycling and rescuing
those runaway dogs and cats.
i barely have time for this.
