Poem -

something like that

you wake up
take a breath
make a coffee
gaze the sky

ponder the truth
measure the facts
wonder if dead ones
go there when they die

or maybe you don't
your head full of plans
your life making sense
your life still on tracks

and maybe you don'tย 
think of dead things at all
the head count intact
some could envy you that

you might light up a cigarette
maybe mostly you won't
feed the dog feed the cat

maybe something like that

Humans are very complex, and look at things in different ways, or something like that, loved it.

First thing I do indeed (between 05.30hrs and 06.15hrs at weekdays) is yell at the cat not to be impatient, I first need put the kettle on for morning tea and feed her her solid morning food (when I get home after 17.30hrs on working days, it's yell at her, kiss the wife and then grab the tin of catfood to shut her up ) ๐ŸฉโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚. Only then life resumes๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค— So, good 1 again

I have no doubt about it maybe more often like that than not for most of us if we ditch the feigned smiles and false conformity that is so often expected of us .. this really hit home and hard Marion .. Just be sure you are not on your own .. Relatable ink is the essence of fine poetry in my bloody book .. it donโ€™t stop it from stinging none though ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ‘xx
