Monday Madness


On most weeks it’s how I start the day
the routine, normal, awkward way
A splash of coffee on my blouse
Is how this Monday will  start out
I’ll bang my knees on the table leg
burn my toast and scrambled eggs
I’m late as I start looking for my keys 

I’ll search the floor on bended knees
I might have l left them on the sink,
or maybe in the couch I think

On the table, in plain view 

Is where I find them at 8:02

Behind a big truck now going slow

Hitting every red light, as I go

A frantic way each week to start

Late for work, I pull in to park

Now rushing quickly to get inside

I sit down fast and start to type  

Just another Monday to survive
