The Weekend is Near
The weekend is near
I want to forget those piles of papers in the trays
… and replace it with vibrant strokes of paint
Manifesting an ox wearing a top hat
Smoking cigarettes and staring at the virus
The weekend is around the corner
I want to forget the endless back to back meetings
… and replace it with arpeggios of notes
Vibrating the verse and chorus
Of a good rock and roll song
The weekend is coming
I want to forget bloody budgets and kpi
… and replace it with the fantasy of an alien
Embodying chapters of contemporary writing
Filling up pages of plots and twists
The weekend is what I have been longing for
Throughout the hectic past five days
All I want is the weekend
For the sake of sanity
