Image for the poem Monday

Monday

the phone rings
my bird sings
my cat meows
the reality of the here and now

the grass has grown it needs to be cut
but honestly i don't give a fuck

the dishes are filling up the sink
but I'd rather lay here and think

there's so much shit i could do
i could learn karate or Kung fu


but i don't
and probably wont

motivation ceased to exist
and everything else just got dismissed

to get out of bed or not that is the question
could these be signs of depression?

i could take a shower
yet i feel i have no power

i could do a lot of things
like go to the bar and have a couple little kings

yet i don't
and probably won't

there's some laundry that needs to be done
but lets be real, that isn't any fun

i guess ill just lay here
perhaps ill magically disappear

just when i think i can rest
i hear the mail man, delivering more bad news for me to ingest

bill collectors wanting money
and a free cruise! how funny

just another Monday in my shitty life
just another Monday filled with strife
