Took my meds and checked the chat
Someone’s wife just shaved her head
Someone else says, “Fuck this fog.”
Missed her kid’s school thing again
Marked the day but still forgot
Wrote it down in three damn apps
Tried to clean. Forgot I started
Filled the sink and walked away
Area rugs need a shake
Clam inside, I don’t unfold
Some days offer only brine
Some days hold a hidden pearl
Still, the group chat’s making jokes
Someone found a lace-trimmed robe
Says she aced it at her scan
Says she’s claiming glam as spite
We don’t talk about the ones
We don’t see in chat again
Hope feels sharp and soft at once
Some days, even teas taste wrong
Wife says, “Baby, rest is real.”
So I call that getting things done
Some days I just hare off after
Something I forgot to want
