Pressing Restart
Each night before bed
I press down the little
blue lotion lid
and revive
my crispy hands
from a days (not-so)
hard work.
Wash off the days failures
and hope tomorrow starts
a new path,
diverging from the hole
I’ve been digging
for twelve weeks—
my blisters could really use
a break.

Love the fresh metaphor, the lighthearted tone.
