Wrong time

time out of joint
like a phantom limb sprain

I am used to these moments
occurring

by now. But you're not asleep
now,

and you won't be
for hours.

And I get up,
set to sit down

to the wrong meal, washed down
by incongruous beverage choices

and then go out, wondering why

it all seems too late
