Thief of time

All the morning at home lying in bed with my wife till 11 o’clock. Such a habit we have got this winter of lying long abed. Dined at home, and in the afternoon to the office. There sat late, and so home and to bed.

lying with my clock
such a habit we have

this winter-long
afternoon at home


Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Saturday 14 December 1661.
