Got That Monday Feeling?

Monday

Today it is Monday

You wonder how I know

Ah, quite simple really

The computer told me so

Where would I be without it

I can’t begin to guess

Because, to put it quite bluntly

My head is in a mess

The memory’s not so good now

And words just don’t come out

Everything I start to say

I quickly start to doubt

I think my brain stopped connecting

With my lips and fingers too

Spellcheck has made this readable

Or else you wouldn’t have clue!

My fingers do their own thing

And seem to dance around those keys

I type Rs instead of Ws

And mix my Gs with Bs

Is it because I’m getting older?

Or is it just my meds?

I think it’s the second option

They do this to our heads
