What is a Bad Day?
A bad day is skipping breakfast
Because you want to get to work early
For a meeting
A bad day is going to work and finding out
That the meeting was cancelled
And you skipped breakfast for no reason.
A bad day is noticing you left all your money
At home
and you then have to
Skip lunch too.
A bad day is then fainting
Halfway
Through the day because of
Your lack of food
A bad day is having your boss
Fire you
Because he believes that you
Are too weak and are medically
Not well
Enough to work there
A bad day is coming home
And seeing that your electric is
Turned off
Because you didn’t pay your bills
And now you have no money to pay it
A bad day is not getting
Your urgent call from your
Mother
Saying your grandma is in the hospital
Because your electric is
Off
A bad day is then being shunned
From your family
Because you were the
Only
Person who missed
Your grandmother’s death
A bad day is finding out that in your
Grandmothers will
She left your siblings money and you
Nothing
A bad day is remembering that you were the one
Who scrubbed your grandmother’s feet
For hours when she was sick
And you still didn’t get any money from the
Will
But the
Worst
Day of all,
Is knowing that none of this is true
But you still find yourself complaining
