On Monday

On Monday 

There's that mental transition 

From relaxation 

To work mode 

On Monday

There's coffee 

Lunch making 

And office clothes

On Monday 

The cat gives you that look 

The "You're leaving again" face 

And meows his displeasure 

On Monday

Your cellphone goes on silent 

You apply make up 

And plan tacos for tonight 

On Monday 

You pray in the shower 

And you're a little bit frustrated 

And a little bit resigned

On Monday 

You cry in the car

Angels talk to you while you drive 

And the pink flowers on the roadside make you smile 

On Monday

You realize 

This is being human 

And this is being a woman

And this is being you 

On Monday

You embrace the day

You just breathe

And you flow with all of it 

And the mojo isn't dead 

On Monday
