The Irony of It

Uck! Oh my!
My feelings
as I get out of bed each day
to get ready and go to work.
Will it ever get better?
Ouch! Damn!
There I went and hit my knee
on my desk again!
You know, I try to get through
at least one day without injury,
but to no avail.
Aaah! Great!
The feeling of relaxation
as I rest on the bus ride
going home from the office.
Nothing can bother me now.
Woah! Stop!
What's broken?
How much to fix it?
Why won’t the kids shut up?
What a headeache!
Damn, I wish
I was back at work!
