3 A.M.

This morning I worked the early shift at my job. I awoke at 3 A.M., left the house at 4, and arrived at Store X a few minutes before 5 to put my stuff away and clock in. Twelve hours later, at 3 in the afternoon, I wrote this haiku about waking up so early.

Half a day ago

Before the curtains parted

Sleep clattered away
