FEAR NOT FOR FRIDAY

 

Fear not the freedom

Of a Friday night.

Its but a brief respite

From the realities

Of the week.

A time

In which we seek

Retrieval

And absolution

For last Saturday's sins

Or for Sunday's

Lapses of responsibility.

Ah! The freedom of a Friday night.

A rare delight

To revel in the rowdy release

And the peace

That comes

When I can be

Who I really am.
