3WW: Affair, Expectation, Free

Sharp slices
of brightness
slash my morning
blinds.

I'm sitting in bed
with no expectation
of anything
for today.

Free hours
are maple syrup
sticky and sweet.
I should get up,

open the blinds,
make breakfast.
Instead, I've begun
an affair with laziness.

    Agree with @rallentanda no harm with occasional laziness :-)

    I have the same sentiment. Unfortunately I also have an addictive sort of temperament. If a little is good, more is always better. Slack time is addictive. I have a bunch of it right now. After several weeks, I still love and protect it...

    those "free hours" sound quite tasty. I wouldn't mind a little of that myself--who am I kidding, my affair with laziness started eons ago!
