When the day is already half over
when you finally get out of bed.
A shower would be nice?
Maybe some food to eat?
When the day is already half over
when you finally get out of bed.
A shower would be nice?
Maybe some food to eat?
Somedays I think I can do this.
Somedays I merely exist.
Most days are a constant struggle
to get to those somedays where
Pick your battles
Place the boundaries
Let them know this is a line not to cross
When all else fails
do not allow the tantrum to win
Maybe then they will understand
that as the parent
your word is law
and although you respect them
A nutritious snack
well worthy of waking up for.
Oatmeal is filling
and pairs well with the fruit of choice.
So have a hearty meal
Money is spent
without thought or remorse.
The item on display
is now yours.
Why wait for the next sale
when it could be gone by then.
Plus your money
will also be gone.
Bills will have been paid
groceries bought
Rent will be due
so go get that wonderful tattoo
Start thinking you won
Begin to fantasize your achievements.
Arrogance will abound.
Failure is like a rock
It will drag you under
and smother all your breath.
So do not imagine winning.
Think about the progress
and learn to enjoy your journey.
Any being will fall.
It is those who pick themselves up again
Twilight measures the night
While dawn brings excess light
The darkness will hide
Even should the moonlight shine
The daytime dreams
Cannot compare to the nightmares screams
I lurk in the corners of your mind
A being so loathsome to find
There is nothing you can do
To stop being the fool
As I wander through and eat
To my gluttonous hearts beat
Unlimited expression
Discoveries unlocked
Pleasure unhinged
Timeless renewal
Gifted humanity
A world within
Meeting reality
Precautions were taken.
Proven not enough.
Half the work done
Destroyed.
The culprits sit beside their handiwork
Seemingly unaware.
As you piece back together
and find
you are missing at least one
of the puzzle pieces
that your cat
Good friends
Supper provided
Appreciation ensues
Games to play
Fun is had
Life is laughter
