#menial
I need to eat Why do I forget? Such a menial task, So simple, mundane, I want to, I try, I just don’t know when, Why don’t I know? Why can’t I act? Just to get up, cook, Buy, heat up, It’s so easy, necessary, Difficult to my mind The struggle is real I need to remind myself “Don’t forget to eat” “Watch the time” “Take care of yourself” “You worry my mind” I’m sorry, I try, I promise I do I set the clock, the time, I plan, I prep, It’s just so much, difficult, unkind, I’m sorry I forget, procrastinate, Fall behind.

menial task.
Rorschach sounds test door lock found watching ninetofivers run the hamster wheel. I could complain that would be sane, right? Efficacy of coffee in drawing truth from words belies belief belittling lies obvious strength. Who are you to say “light"? Just another dark eyed zombie echoing societal platitudes. The days ways say stay to the ***** of the broke brained overweight. Hunger in the eyes sunder intelligent minds beneath the crushing hand of expectation. Buy me a sliver of happiness Or was it Cry me a river of helplessness Memory fails snails snotting up rails that funny ******* find with palm’s hand.

Your sincerity becomes a menial job.
