I rolled out of bed waking up fresh
Not knowing what was in store for me today
But Murphy had a different plan
For I should have stayed in bed the rest of the day
But instead I got dressed for work
And headed downstairs for a small snack
Poured a bowl of cereal, wanting to drown it in milk
Only to find the milk on the counter in the grocery sack
So I leave to work, with plenty of time
Stopping at the Mc Donald’s drive though
Ordering a sausage biscuit with cheese
Biting into a crusty biscuit not even a dog could chew
The morning meeting went without a hitch
So I thought my day was getting better
Until my boss called me into his office
Handing me a notice of downsizing letter
So I boxed up my personal items
And headed out of the building to my car
It was then that I new things could get worse
Someone had broken into my car with a pry bar
There was only one thing left to do
Just succumb to Murphy’s Law
Go back to the empty house
Stay out of sight and withdraw
