Contempt

I was in bed
lying on my back.
A phone and a diary beside me.
On bed, powerless, motionless, emotionless.
Saw a mouse on the floor
near my bed.
Was looking at me
challenging me
mocking my slothfulness.
I grabbed the diary
Threw at it
Missed the target completely.
The mice won
and all I was left with
was my phone.
