Keep On
Running on empty
right into a wall
left in a heap of
limbs, bills, withdrawal
stitch it up together with
clocks, laws, regrets
pick it back up because
life’s not done with you yet.

Another Monday, another poem to moan it’s arrival. Here’s to hoping that you stop on by, like what you see, and maybe got a little smile. ‘Cause you know we need them this time of the week.
Well, as always, here’s to hoping your day flies right on by and that you’ve got something cold and on the rocks waiting for you when you get home tonight.

Waking Woes
Eyes open up to that
alarm scream sound
sun’s not up but
feet touch ground
back’s still sore
and soul’s still
down
but coffee’s warm
and toast will brown
and heart’s still pure
while hours are long
and dream’s still short
while hope drones on.

As always: here’s to hoping your day flies right on by and that you’ve got something cold and on the rocks waiting for you when you get home tonight.
Keeping On
Coffee can kiss me good morning
as sure as gin ‘ll kiss me goodnight
I gotta vice for ever moment,
an excuse for every regret
but that’s alright
because at least I haven’t stopped moving
yeah, I’m dragging but carrying on
my heart keeps beating
my head keeps dreaming
my legs keep leading
me into every new dusk
and dawn.

Well-Meaning Monday
No good deed goes unpunished
no dreamer finds time to sleep
and we of the tender hearts
are only
that way from being beat
We’re taking the high road to our
personal hells just
digging our own graves while
trying to dig them their wells

They say the road to hell’s paved with good intentions. Personally, I think that applies to most highways, too. Yet to find someone making an early morning commute who wouldn’t rather be some place they ain’t.

Remedy (Just Make it Through)
Remedy
It’s the only quick fix
answer that we’ve come
up with
Day in and out we
run this endless sort
of drive
Up and at ‘um just
rush through life
eyes closed
Keep your head down
hands to yourself and
hug that workload
It ain’t pretty but
it’ll get us through
mostly intact
Just trust the grind
keep your wits about you
and, most importantly,
don’t forget to
laugh

Monday again, folks. I know this week might seem a little tough but, well, hopefully I got something here that might help. In addition to the little lament above, I’ll post a link to my pinterest below. Might just make the Monday go a bit quicker by.

Weekend Regrets and Reflections
Weekend Regrets and Reflections
It wasn’t like I could
help it.
Last night was a blur of
wishes and was-es
regrets and never-s
sighs and bellows
cries that life
hadn’t come home.
I waited all night,
all my life,
but I was left with
empty promises
unfulfilled dreams and
an unsatisfied
strife-
a fight that wasn’t worth
my time.

Well, another Monday, folks. Here we are again and here we go to another work week. Above I gave you a lil’ diddy that might just explain some of those regrets coming off a weekend high. Or a weekend hangover, for that matter. Either way, hope you enjoy and here’s to hoping you’re going to have a not so regretful Monday.
Misanthropic Monday
Misanthropic Monday
It’s just a-
nother
Misanthropic Monday
that flagship of the
work week fleet of
order bellowing days,
a daze of an up and at ‘um
caffeine fueled haze squeezed
between forced philanthropy
espoused values that profess
an honest way is an honest wage
love your neighbor and everyone
else who gets paid and
a million other things that beat
grate and drain while you,
hand pressed to ears,
grit your teeth, bare it, march on
through the never ending maze of
paychecks,
customers,
co-workers,
weekends,
bosses,
deadlines,
decisions,
dedication,
praise.

Piper
Though we all must pay
the piper,
the man with a thousand
upon a thousand names,
we don’t have to dance to
his gilded tune
masters of fate all,
we can craft and fall
into our own
games.
