Monday Blues

Didn't have a good day 

Monday blues 

Was going to go straight home and write and read under the fan

Got home

Changed my mind

Decided to run errands 

Dropped all of my school books and bags off 

Grabbed Frantz Fanon's - Black Skin White Masks to read on the train

Had a few chapters left

Annotated and marked up for lessons

Carried and sipped some mango juice 

Took a leather skirt and sequence shirt to the tailor

Dropped a big bag of shoes and a big bag of clothes off at the goodwill 

Decided to take the 1 to 50th and get my favorite candles from Anthropologie because I had a return anyways

Went down the stairs of the train right before I realized I didn't have my book 

Went right back to the goodwill 

Taken by the young boy was the bin with the clothes that I donated

Sent up for sorting 

Wished good luck from the security man but I didn't need it I knew it had to be in that bin

Went up the elevator and into the sorting house 

Waited forever for the old freight to take me to complete my search

Showed me the last two bins he dropped off and not even my bags that I dropped off were in sight 

Felt crazy like what the heck?! 

Went back downstairs checked again

Said that couldn't be the bin because he knows the boy took the bin I put my things in upstairs

Went back up 

Went with security man this time 

Showed two different bins by the boy this time 

Had my bags of things 

Relieved 

Emptied both bags  

No book. 

Went back to the tailor 

Had to be there? 

Was about to put the lock on the gate

Crawled under to look in

Turned on the lights 

Looked on the counter 

Cleaned and clear

No book. 

Stood on the corner of 181st and Ft. Wash

Wondered what should I do

Back to goodwill and look again

No. 

Had already looked twice 

Dropped it, maybe. 

Stolen by the white girl in the tailor who eyed the cover

Saw me leave it

Picked it up after I walked out, maybe. 

Needed a book bag 

From now on I need to carry a book bag

Ordered a new one 

Had Prime for a few months now

It'll be here tomorrow.
