Today Is Thursday

Today Is Thursday

Today is Thursday
But it feels like Friday.
So I'm wondering
Why I'm sitting here
Discussing ethics with you.
Shouldn't I be somewhere else?
Am I just fatigued
Or is it normal
For my head to hurt?
Am I listening to the instructor
Or is he
Going in one ear
And out the other?
It is my belief that
The only reason I'm still awake
Is the chewing gum
Rolling on my tongue.
