Sick-minded rabbit



You who is tired of the clock
and the turning
of pages in the calendar.
    Turn off the television
    so your feet start movin'
    take the trash out
    and go off to work
you who is tired of the clock
must learn to keep your eyes away.
Take off your shadow
  and the weight
  of the wait
now you seem lighter.
You
now that your own lifeforce turned against you.
You seem aware,
as if you no longer wish to sleep.
Go,
Sick-minded rabbit,
and reclaim the ground
you lost.
