One of those daze

By Ashteroth

It's been one of those days
a dreary daze
in truth one of those weeks
my hazy brain's
up in a craze
5 days with 8 hours sleep

'Cause I'm out of medication
and I'm slurring all my speech
I'm in the wrong direction
now I can not find my keys-
OR my fricken phone
but finding it should be a cinch
when I called it from my home
I heard my ringtone in the fridge   O.o

Well I'll be.... Now frankly
I do not give a shit
I'm sick of running into doorways
with my shoulders and my hips

Suddenly.... It struck me
I am a tired man
my coffee's overflowing
and the keys were in my hand

So it's been one of those nights
nose hair ignites
I light another smoke
my face screws tight
smoke in my eyes
sip of coffee makes me choke

Curse it out of sheer frustration
salt n sugar were to close
remake with hesitation...
Nah, I might just stick to Coke
and now where's my bloody wallet
...seems I'd washed it with my coat
took it out and then forgot it
until 2Ks up the road.   :/

    Strangely enough I love the feeling, just drifting through the day seemingly barely awake. Read made for a nice ride
