I've left my school and dread the Dementors kiss
Of work upon my week -
The Cruiatius curse of rising early every morn,
The grind of working at the Ministry of Boredom.
But on a Friday we muggles wave the pay-cheque and
"Expelliarmus," we fly away to stretch our weekends and to play.
My Patronus is a friendly smile which bobs along in sun and rain,
But on Mondays I wish I'd looked harder for the Cloak of Invisibility.

This is dedicated to my friend who has just left school and is just experiencing having to work from 9a.m. - 5p.m.
