Either 5am or 7:47am
There is no in-between
The house is quiet and heavy with slumber
Even the shutters join in, and silently snore
We’re running late (and nobody cares)
Sun, then snow, then sun again
Snow will always be the last to leave
So keep the heavy jackets with heavy blankets
and hold them until the grass stains
Robbed of light to be given light
A trade off
We love…to hate
As we throw the alarm
There is no in-between
Of Daylight Savings Crime
