I am going under
after all the failures before me.
I ate no pies on Pi Day.
I have drunk no St. Ides
on the Ides of March.
No dime bags were purchased
on the March tenth
and I have no plans
for May fourth in this galaxy
or any other.

I am a disappointment to my fantasy life
and all others.
What kind of a legacy
am I leaving for others
this way?

How embarrassing have I become!
What kind of a fool am I
to make of myself
in the days arriving before me
if nothing changes?
