That Enemy of Mine

That enemy of mine, that evil thing,

It waits in the dark contemplating. 

Plotting how to disturb me most,

I should kill it and spit on its ghost.

 

This is it's plan, that agent from hell,

To disturb my sleep with a malicious bell.

It happens each morning before I awake. 

This fiend does great problems for me make.

 

Finally up I grasp it to tear it apart!

Then it stops singing, I'm alone in the dark.

I set the beast down and begin my day.

My enemy has spoken, I must now be awake.
