Living for the weekend
Poem: Living for the weekend
She’s a bit of a trail blazer!
She likes to start a new trend!
If she had it her way
the clocks would go back by an hour every weekend!
Review: Living for the weekend
Who is this mentally compromised or should I say ‘creative’ lady? She has clearly not thought this one through. Overdoing the lateral thinking here. Perhaps a bit of linear thinking is needed?
What has been asked for here? To undertake this level of absurdity (let’s face it, that’s what it is, the turning of clocks back and forward each year, and we all follow and go along with it like the good little puppets that we are, aren’t we?) but to do this every weekend? Who in their right mind would want to do that?
Stop the clock! Stop it! Leave time alone!
Isn’t it bad enough that ‘time’ goes forwards and backwards during the year?
If it were to ever take place every weekend then the world be in even more of a ‘state’ than how it is already, no?
We’d end up having total darkness in what would originally have been the morning! and then that is repeated! It’s horrific!
Not only that but what a faff it would be with all the twiddling about with clocks on walls, shelves, and watches etc.
This would not be ‘living for the weekend’ experience but eventually the preceding day too and so on and so forth…or is that back?! Arrggh… Confusion and even more of a faff! This is no way to live! Again, I say stop this before it gets started as it would be ‘living like a zombie’ for a lifetime and not having that ‘imposed extra hour’ in bed once a year ( oh, how I laugh at this, “I’m doing you a favour rule!”)
This way of thinking is… a waste of ‘time’ is it not?
‘Oh the irony’
Time itself will continue to tick on by with or without a clock.
The birds will continue to give it the chirpy chirps!
This lady who has been observed by the poet, must have wonderful weekends that are in complete contrast to the Monday to Friday of her week? I’m intrigued to find out more!
Naively, a good idea.
But Here’s another idea;
Whoever this trailblazer is, have less on your plate during the day. You do not need to occupy every second of it with the unnecessaries. I’m guessing you don’t even know what those things are but the poet/observer has got you sussed! I’m sure there’ll be more poem’s to come. I’m watching this space!
Go to bed an hour earlier, oh ‘trailblazer’ that you are, and dream of a different kind of trend that won’t create such a mind bend!
Great little poem. That extra hour in my life this week has meant that I had the time to read and digest it!
