Uhhhh.... Another Bad Day
By Elizabeta
November 13, 1997

Getting out of the car today,
I found myself stranded on the freeway
a thousand cars going
100 mph speed at me from all directions
and I feared that I would become
one with the possum killed on the road

Walking to my door today
I got struck by lightning from the black cloud that hovers over my head
and my wet clothes
chaffed my skin and
chilled me to the bone
while I searched for the key
for I had locked myself out....
again.
(Second time this week)

Well, uhhhhh... yeah.

Out of the frying pan,
into the fire.
I was making vegetable soup
but then I fell into the blender
I got sliced and diced (well, isn't that nice)
and got poured
into a grim gray class of frustration
Well, I think I just saw my mind go floating by
(Second time this week)

Well, uhhhhh... yeah.

I'm having a bad day again
again
again
Whacked my head on the wall
but it didn't help at all
I'm having a bad day
(Second time this week)
