Skip Today

Happiness
Hungry enough to taste it
Not hungry enough to take it
Hours, minutes, seconds form a line
Rhythmically picking up days
Avoiding the boss issuing fines
Lashing out for respect not paid
The human is seen as a monkey
By the dogs, the cats, the iguanas
Mocking us for being facetious
Rejecting us for being elitist
Historians, skip today
Pay it no mind
It's paid me none
The eyes are terrible liars
You can't fake light being in them
As smooth as neglected tires
As dull as abandoned cement
Attend a local grief class
A desperate attempt to care
Feel anything other than glass
Gaze without a frayed stare
Historians, skip today
Pay it no mind
It's paid me none
