Fighting the urge to procrastinate..
My duvet said 'stay awhile longer'
My breakfast said 'don’t rush your food'
My bath said – 'enjoy the water'
The clock said – 'it’s time'
My energy said 'you need to recharge'
My dressing gown said 'you don’t need clothes'
The TV said 'watch me'
My clock said 'you blow'
My conscience said 'you know better'
My garden said 'sit in me'
‘No’ said I
‘Enough already’
The lure of nothingness so captivating
So blinding
That it’s with every fibre of my being that I finally get off this 'blinkin' chair
Turn off, ‘Everybody loves Raymond’, and start to pack away what I can
In short...I need to paint this room:)
