Don'T Call Me On a Monday

Don't call me on a Monday, I'll never be at my best. Don't call me on a Monday, for it should've been made a day of rest. Don't call me on a Monday, It's the day of the week I like the least. Don't call me on a Monday, or you'll be sure to raise a beast. Don't call me on a Monday, I really don't have the time. Don't call me on a Monday, I might just call you a swine. Don't call me on a Monday, my body is all a jumble. Don't call me on a Monday, that would be as wise as entering a jungle. Don't call me on a Monday, please take my best advice. Don't call me on a Monday, my head feels like it's been put in a vise. Don't call me on a Monday, any other day of the week would be fine. Don't call me on a Monday, but call me on a Friday and that would be just divine. Written June 2021 'on a Monday'

Sad that some people live their life in such a manner. That must be awful to feel that horrible. I enjoyed reading it. It has good rhythm, rhyme and flow. Sara
