Monday Morning Madness

Another Sunday night
spent sleepless,
not dreaming
the fairytale fantasies
of my tortured soul,

into surreal dreams,
until the crack of dawn
like a hypnotists cue
sends me into deep slumber.
Ten minutes of restful bliss
interrupted by an angry alarm
that tells me –
Today is Monday.
