comedy of errands
Life is a comedy of errands So my cognitive behavioural therapist told me As she disinterestedly scanned my homework A gridded pre-printed timetable of my daily tasks Brushed teeth Got dressed Took sons to school Am I doing it right? Please remove your shoes Do you mean can my six year-old son Take his shoes off? Put the bins out Make a shopping list Spray air-freshener Plan some things I need to do Answer emails Go for a walk Write a poem Look out of the window Meditate Repeat to fade
