ready to go back to bed

He woke up, happy
and excited to start his day
got out of bed, did his hygiene thing,
 knelt on his knees to pray
thanking God for a great nights
 sleep that he has not gotten in a while
quickly put socks on his feet
before they hit the cold tile
then on to make his breakfast;
oatmeal, pork sausage, and 2 slices of wheat toast
ssshhhhiiiiidddd, this morning is starting off great,
let me make my face book post
almost ready to walk out the door,
on his way to work
here goes these obnoxious ass kids,
and his neighbor is such a jerk
getting inside of his car,
ready to roll out into the jungle
pulling out, onward on, UGH,
 now traffic, such a hustle.
now he knows the route to work
has a set of its own issues
even the presence of that cop car
that just pulled up behind you
all is good, all is well;
his phone rang all of a sudden
not thinking about the cop behind you,
you look down to push the on button
as you pick up the phone, you moved the wheel,
your car slightly swerves
the cops lights come on, the siren sounds,
and you are like, "what in the world"
so to keep from looking even more suspicious,
 you pull over to the side of the road
lay the phone on the dash, grab his license and proof of insurance,
 preparing for where this may go
hand flat on the dash,
as the cop comes up to the side
one hand on your window, the other on his pistol,
now one more huge sigh
