There are those days when

One should not get out of bed

'Cept to eat and pee.

    lol I do actually have to pee Thankfully this isn’t my cup today, but it was my cup a week or so back. I like that ‘accept’ wasn’t spelt out, I like the effect that gave. I completely agree with this haiku, some days I just can’t function. lol the letter P was a nice touch. A very relatable piece 👌🏽👏🏽🤗♥️

    Yah!!! Ha!😅😆 I really would have liked if that cup said at the end and “I MUST pee in this cup, NOW!” Would have been a nice way to finish it and to never share a hot drink with this person at their house! 🤣
