The coffee spills — oh, the tragedy!
Socks mismatched, alarm betrayed me again.
Mirror smirks: “You’re a mess, but try anyway.”
The cat walks over spreadsheets; the dog steals my pen.
Chaos reigns, yet laughter sneaks in.
I take a deep breath, tie my shoes,
Step out, wobble slightly — still upright,
And greet the day: ready, flawed, unstoppable.
