down and up

One moment your down
everything feels damp
dusty and
smells like the sink drain
your wife hates your guts
the washing machine breaks and
you need to buy a new one
a strange man keeps eyeing you
while your riding to work
on a saturday morning!

Then suddenly everything changes
you stop feeling sorry for yourself
your wife texts you to apologize
your students have smiles
on their faces
you eat a ham and butter sandwhich
on that french bread
the kind with the powdery crust

the dust has settled
and now your in limbo
waiting for the next wave
