looking like crap

NinjaGirl

It's one of those days

one swipe of mascara

slather lotion quickly

It's one of those days

black sweat set

a frizzy unkempt bun

It's one of those days

eating bags of chocolate

testing my luck

It's one of those days

Where the universe is against you

    Superb. Honestly, this is too perfect. If only the whole world could see this, it'd resonate with countless. Excellently rendered with awesome imagery and an exquisite poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

    • NinjaGirl

      Hahaha it's "perfect" because it's so not perfect!

      No it is just called entropy. All a matter of perspective and winding down. Fun read

      • NinjaGirl

        You know, that is the third time I've heard the word "entropy" today. I think the universe and God are trying to tell me something... The first was in a physics sense, the second in a song, and the third here.

        This made me smile. Some days it does feel as though the universe is against you! We all have to face such times. A poem I'm sure most people can readily relate to!

        • NinjaGirl

          Haha thank you! Yes, it's one of those days!

          good poem

        • Mutley Ravishes

          Morihei Ueshiba once said, "I am the universe." Now, that's not something you hear everyday!

          • NinjaGirl

            If he's the universe, he's got some explaining to do!

            • Mutley Ravishes

              Well, I don't think he was talking about "little I"!

            • broke

              good

              It really was one of those days. Hence my rabbit hole adventure this morning! šŸ¤£ Well expressed, my friend. Right there with you, minus the mascara and bun (no hair...its sadly a thing). šŸŒ¹šŸ‘

              • NinjaGirl

                Oof having no hair might be worse than this poem... and I thought I had a bad day! Maybe mascara on your head will make your hair longer lol

                • Tristan Robert Lange

                  LOL! Yes, that could work! šŸ¤£ Until I sweat anyway!

                  Chocolate is a great soother and comfort on those days when everything else sucks. Hope you have better days ahead. Enjoyed your poem. Iā€™m a chocolate lover.

                    Haha thank you!

                    Great, I feel bad being a man sometimes as we don't generally have any pressure like this.

                    • NinjaGirl

                      True, there will always be different consequences and pressures

                      • Shaunmatthewcpoetry

                        Bless you, hugs.
