Mental Health Day

It's good to remember work is not all important.
The tediums and pressures found behind a desk
don't encompass a fraction of what life can offer
and our first responsibility is to ourselves
health and happiness before obligation
for if we are weak and sad and worn down
how can we be present
let alone excel?
So I called in sick.
When I wasn't sick.
And ate eggs and drank coffee on the couch.
Watched TV and read and ran errands.
And generally didn't think about much.
Just watched the world go by.
