bad again

the dip in my bed is staring at me

like an upset mother after you’ve spilled milk

it holds its glare as i rise from it

at 6:27 in the evening

it judges my defrosting state of mind

wondering if i would go back to its comfort

or will i get myself the first meal of the day

 

the dishes in the sink remains unwashed

it watches from a distance

as i heat myself up a plate of leftover and a cup of coffee

it hovers, it observes

as more used dishes add to its pile

 

the mirror is spying

on the weight creeping in on my stomach

it silently counts the calories

it speaks

it screams

it deafens

 

I think it’s getting bad again
