The Couch Potato

.
I asked The Lord to tell me,
Why my house is such a mess.
He asked Are you 'computering'?
I had to answer Yes.

He said Get off your fanny!
Tidy up that dirty house!
And so I started cleaning off...

The smudges on my mouse.

I wiped and shined the topside.
That really did the trick.
Admiring my fantastic work,
I didn't mean to 'click'.

But click I did, and oops I found
A fascinating site.
I fell SO far into its lore,
Was up for half the night.

Now, nothing's clean except my mouse
And that is more than dumb.
I guess my house will stay a mess.
I'm sitting here, still on my bum.

The sordid truth revealed at last,The Editor mans up and tells it like it is...

... in Haiku:

  Ugly secret out
Still, I live in denial
The vacuum unused

Dust on the mantle
My finger leaves a clear trail
Oh, for a good maid

 Dishes still unwashed
The sink overflows daily
I am out of plates

Bathroom quite scary
We'd better not go there now
Close eyes in shower

I am too busy
Will do housework tomorrow
Today, my day off

Now... time for housework
But wait, have to mow lawn first
Housework second place

  Plight clearly my fault
  Oh why do I live alone
  We kept house so clean

Ah, so...
