FRUSTRATION

...

By T. LichtPublished 11 months ago 1 min read

I'm just frustrated today.

I woke up with two left feet

and a bag full of wrongdoings.

My coffee spilled on my dress.

My Amazon package is a soggy glob,

And nothing's fitting into my boss's schedule.

I'm just frustrated and it's only 9:30.

What's in store for 10, 10:30 and the rest of my day that barely started?

I only have 2 feet 'to left,'

One coffee to spill,

And no more amazon packages to ruin.

Yet something inside me- that mounting frustration

Tells me, there's still a lot to wrong today.

And a lot more frustration to come...

Keep another foot handy

And maybe don't attempt another coffee.

  • Oh no, I'm so sorry you're having a rough day. I hope it gets better for you

    One of those what else could go wrong days. . Hang in there. Such an enjoyable poem, I laughed but my wife says I have a warped sense of humor. Enjoyed it - You have a way of making people laugh even though you are having a bad day.
