Cause for Alarm
This morning, I fell under the spell of a telling anomaly: My alarm clock forgot to set itself, last night. Perhaps it was an honest mistake, An oversight — the kind humans make all the time, Like misplacing keys, forgetting appointments, not paying a bill.
Whatever the case, I was disgracefully, humiliatingly late to work. I incurred the demonstrative wrath of my sector chief, The apoplectic disdain of my quadrant associates. Even my PC seemed to resent my tardiness; it crashed.
I can't say that this was the first time I've overslept. I've had a few lapses, through the years, But nothing that caused repercussions. If my alarm clock forgets to set itself again, tonight, I'll take matters into my own hands — something drastic.
