didn't go
I didn’t go to work today.
Didn’t stagger to the shower,
grab my latte gotten cold,
Didn't forget to grab my mind
lying there from yesterday.
Didn't run to catch
and nearly miss
that city bus bussing
foggy me
going to work today.
Didn't pay too much for lunch,
or forget to take my break,
Didn't sit frozen at my desk
trying to recall the why
of why oh why
Did I ever end up here.
Didn’t fight
the homeward bound.
Just didn’t go to work.
