I had plans tonight.

To go to the movies
And the gym after that.

But then I couldn’t find a hairband
And I’m thrown into a tizzy.

I ransack tables and I flip over chairs;
I look and I look
In
Every
Nook.
But nothing.

Now it’s time to go to the movies
And everyone’s waiting on me,
But I’m still stuck on the hairband
And can’t find the strength to leave.
