Actually 2:04 AM
Silent and dark, phone rings at 2 AM.
My son, so I knew it had to be bad.
My heart was sinking until I heard,
“Morning, Happy Father’s Day Dad!”

June Bust (Totally Unfair!)
Father’s Day and birthdays,
For Dad, Mom, Brother and Sister.
And all I got in the month of June,
Was a swift, hard kick in the keister!

To Be Continued?
Nose to the grindstone, still lost my job.
Working was life, pushing away all my friends.
Is it time for me to start another chapter,
Or is this where my story finally ends?

Sponsor A Nap!
Sammy in the sunlight,
Daddy in the shade.
Both are sound asleep,
Hope that they get paid.

Maybe Next Week
Rise and shine! It’s Monday Morn!
A brand new workday to be enjoyed.
Except for me, I’m still in bed.
Since I am recently unemployed.

Alone, In Bed
Cleaning up the diet, working out every day,
Seems overwhelming, like a Herculean feat.
But I have to get with it so that when I die,
Sammy has something nutritious to eat.

Dreaming
Sammy and Daddy, lying on the bed,
Staying so still you’d think they were dead.
But before you go looking for the blood and gore,
Pause for just a moment and listen to them snore.

4:30 AM
Half an hour until the alarm goes off,
Could the situation become any sadder?
I was quite blissfully sound asleep,
Until Sammy pounced upon my bladder.
