On this particular day, I did
what I do on other particular days,
got up,
washed up,
ate up,
cleaned up,
hurried up,
went downtown,
sat down,
got down to work,
hunkered down,
at the watercooler I was put down,
felt let down
I slowed down,
left downtown,
came home,
poured down
an upscale Scotch,
wound down,
I turned the heat up
I turned the covers down,
laid down,
tried to live down
what I was up to
from sun up to sun down.
