  • This is how I don't get sick

    Everyday I get up
    Sit all day at work
    Come home for bed
    Each weekend I rest
    recuperate from the week
    get ready for monday
    There are no visitors
    on a weeknight or weekend
    just occasional family
    There is no spouse or kid
    because taking care of me
    is hard enough
    On rare occasion
    I do extra chores
    or steal a moment of fun
    Mostly, I live within
    the limit set by my body
    getting ready for monday
    This is how I don’t get sick.
