Cereal with milk is good

Cereal with orange juice is gross

Cereal with blueberries is delicious

Cereal with eggs not so much

Of course

every one has their own take on breakfast foods

so maybe cereal can be for supper?

Inspiration fleeting

The ideas are lost

Mundane and boring

Nonsense that doesn’t rhyme

And yet still driven to write

So words spill on the page

Meaningless and trite

I have a theory

They fill the tires with the drug

then ride around on the bikes

to mix the foul concoction.

Call it foolish

but I see an awful lot

of riders around

who always seem to visit

one particular house.

Every outfit needs to be washed

after you notice the wetness.

Chocolate is required,

not needed, not just wanted.

Hot water bottles help ease some of the pain

yet they only last for so long.

Your mood is constant irritability

and yet even then it swings.

It is a stage of life each of us encounter

and yet we are considered the weaker sex

when we still come to work, or school or go out in general

so that we all can live.

Wearing the same shirt as yesterday.

Sleeping in late.

Playing on the computer all day.

Maybe getting the chores done.

Lazing about because its the weekend.

So what day did you say it was today?

Oh its not Saturday?

Maybe I should change out of my pajamas then.

Pants outfit for the morning.

The tank top for the afternoon.

Maybe two different ones

depending on the weather.

The evening will be daring

and a little black dress.

Or perhaps the elegant red one?

As for bed

why nothing of course.

It simply won’t do in this heat!

Now my day is complete.

What am I doing?

Why nothing of course!

I fear you must get far away from me now

or I will chop your hands off to keep them clean.

I will lock you in your rooms

to keep from having to trip over your toys.

You will go without food or water

so I no longer have to clean the bathroom messes.

And yet I cannot

for I love you dear

and having my back hurt

in order to pick you up

is only nature’s way

of telling me I am old.

 

I accidentally grabbed the wrong package.

I do  not have a tolerance for heat.

So my mouth is burning

and I fear my poor stomach

will be in agony soon.

Change happens

and is very annoying sometimes.

When a routine has to be altered

it frustrates until the new one is established.

That was over here before.

Why would they place that here?

Where is it?

Why can I not do what I used to do?

All the little things that people in general

do not like to do

make such a difference

when you have a friend

who is trying their best.

If nobody else

seems to help

then change the routine

and help them.

You must be wary

of every step taken today

for who knows how close

danger lurks in the way.

Walk by a stranger on the bench

stop to say hello

and next time you cough

worry hardens the blow.

Every shop keep

has to make their ends meet

yet every customer

is illness walking in their feet.

No one is safe these days

so we act paranoid

and try to run away

and yet social distancing drives us all crazy!
