Amazing what small things
can nettle and irritate on a day
that starts as any day does
of course with promise the
promise of any sort of lovely
lively beloved wonder
devolving instead into a pall of gloom
thus changing hats I choose to fasten
upon the impressive magnitude
of such a bitter malaise arrived
from nowhere so robust routing all
my usual cheer in two or three
swift blows my oh my
I stand duly impressed!
Sounds like my day…but your description is so much better than my “bummer of a day”!
