And Where It Stops, Nobody Knows

I guess I must have overslept;
Here bills are dated First of Sept.

I wonder what I shall have hocked
When they come headed First of Oct?

I’ll HAVE to find a treasure-trove
Sometime before the first of Nov.,

And so catch up, or know no peace
When we are writing “First of Dec.”

Then, Christmas fixes me again:
I’m buried on the 1st of Jan!
