Down for the Count!

Life haiku's!

                                                                    

sometimes it seems like

life is a boxing bruiser

standing 8 count, end

 

slapped upside the head

punch-drunk you stagger around

then it's all fall down

 

you, down for the count

meeting the canvas head first

reality, done

 

you, in this corner

daily war in that corner

touch gloves and lights out

 

never had a chance

the fight was rigged from the start

you were unaware

 

spectators watching

paid nothing to see you clubbed

screaming for your blood

It does seem that way sometimes...

Particularly since I've had a bad day myself...
