I don’t need to get it done today.
For now, I want to lie down and rest.
I was feeling burnt out, anyways.
//
It’s not even due until Friday.
There’s no need to start feeling distressed.
There’s no need to get it done today.
//
It’s Wednesday, a time of disarray,
So I don’t think I can do my best.
There’s Thursday and Friday, anyways.
//
It’s due tomorrow. I have one day.
I’ll do it when I’m not feeling stressed.
It’s due tomorrow, not today.
//
It’s not due till midnight today.
But this doesn’t pique my interest.
I’ve still got more time, anyways.
//
I wish I could make it go away.
Now I’m all out of time to invest.
It’s eleven fifty-nine today.
It wasn’t worth the effort, anyways.
