Day 1: November 29th
So my watch begins: 👀
My wife’s profession resumes👩🏼💼
She toils, as do I
Now through December 🗓️
I care for my newborn son 👶🏼
And panic sets in 😰
Never have I had ⏳
Such abundant time, yet I
Accomplish little ⌛️

Day 2: November 30th
Feed, Play, Chill, & Sleep 💤
The ceaseless cycle repeats
With structured chaos
As my thoughts descend😵💫
Into madness, his smiles
Warm my weary heart❤️
Soon thereafter flows
A tide from his tiny lips.🤮
One more onesie soiled

Day 3: December 1st
I witness my son 👶🏼
Defecate in front of me 💩
As he squirms, unfazed.
Golden, liquid poo 🤢
Adorns the changing table
As I watch in shock😳
I hasten to cleanse 🧼
In horror I plead for aid 🙏
And God replies: No. 👎

Day 4: Dec 4
“Sleep when baby sleeps”😴
Is quaint but absurd council
One gives new parents
Shall I then prepare👨🍳
To feast when the babe doth feasts?🍖
Or bathe when babe bathes?🚿
A moot point as he
Forsakes slumber’s sweet embrace
And woefully weeps😭
