At Least I Am Trying

Milk I try to pour myself a glass of milk The milk thinks the counter is a glass Notebook I try to grab my notebook to write this now The notebook slips down to the ground Doorway I try to walk through a doorway What could go wrong? My toe stubs the solid wall Music! Music can heal anything! Hey, it’s my favorite song! I’m dancing and singing at the top of my lungs The best part is coming up Then right before the big chorus drop My ears are magically too small And to my delight, the earbuds fall Toast!! What is easier than toast?! Even I could manage that! The toaster is opened and lo and behold The bread is black as black Nutella!!! “Nutella can fix anything!” I thought So I run to fetch my gold I turn the nob then bam! My head meets the corner, the sharpest corner in fact Now my vision is blurry and a heart beats in my head A doctor will be seen for that!
