Waking Up in Women’s Clothes

I rose today
feeling changed.
Still I rose,
to something strange…

Upon my back
a thing was fastened,
I sprung from my slumber
to see what had happened.

Ah- to a -ha!
Would you look at that!
I’m in a bra?
without much for tat.

Oh well,
“it is what it is,” I suppose.
I must now be a woman
waking up in these clothes.

Grabbed my phone from the socket
and threw on some jeans.
Wait, there are no pockets…
What does that mean?

No pockets that are real
anywhere on these pants.
Gosh, that’s just surreal,
Where do I put my hands?!

Okay, forget it,
I’ll throw my stuff in a purse.
The way things are headed
it can’t get any worse.

And if that is the story
then hmm… I guess…
“Might as well go for it”
and I threw on a dress.
