Friday was strange,

and I feared the worst,

and my stomach rumbled in dread.

Saturday came,

and you queered my thirst,

though you didn't sleep in my bed.

Days have I slept,

and nearly collapsed,

how was this bliss unrestrained?

Sunday you left,

and I was relaxed,

for Saturday's peace still remained.

JULY 19, 2006

For Jeremy,

Thank You for Saturday.
