Your verse is so true. I used to laugh at my mother for crossing the days off the calendar each morning. Now I get it. Everyday is starting in to feel like Saturday since the routine of life is on hiatus.

yep, something constant that happens each week that I have to remember, like putting out the garbage, is the only thing (besides my cell phone) that keeps me aware.

This 5-7-5, Today Is..., has the right set up and relates the current phenomena of losing track of days. If it weren't for SNL I'd never know if it was the weekend.

Ciao Mystery poet. I gave you my vote .. you have eight now!
Locked up at home one tends to lose contact with reality .. this whole corona tragedy seems a bad nightmare
off late I can't remember what day it is .. everyday seems the same...
Kinda ironic if it weren't for this deadly virus.
I wish you well in this contest ..

thank you for your comments and your vote!!
So far I have been "in place" and hope I'm virus-free. I tend to see the humorous side of certain situations, though,which helps with isolation.

Except that all the neighbors are doing the same thing, Author! This is sooo funny! The only thing that keeps me knowing what day of the week it is, is the fact that I'm in the April poem of the day contest... (yeah, I can't remember the acronym.) I review a LOT just to be able to post things every day and make them worth something! It's tough! LOL

The theme or matter has humour, and the presentation (words) has been humorous, if not logical and rational or relative; well said, well done; thanks for sharing.

This piece is funny and witty. Something we all do and say almost every day as we get lost on what day it is or time it is. We are so distracted with the various things going on around us it consumes are mind till we forget when and where we are.

besides the fact that one day just blends into another- no plans, no people, no conversation except with self, and on the phone.
Thanks for your comments.

You've written an excellent poem for the 5-7-5 humorous contest.
Losing track of time is the new normal since regular routines
are no longer applicable.
The one thing that has remained constant is the garbage collection.
Well done.
Best wishes to you.

-Good image that
fits your poem.
-Your notes are appreciated.
-The syllable count
is good, and I like
your topic as
the person tries to
figure out what day it is.
-You write the hesitating
lines very well, concluding,
"beats me!"
-Good luck in the contest.
