Heavenly Chaos
The Petty Dishes
Together they sit: laughing
Joining in on the pain of the laziness
Demanding, craving
Asking for attention
While we amass, and continue
To ignore, and pretend
But, “we” is written in silence
Because I wash, and so does he…
Sometimes
See? The laziness
And now? The pettiness
“Dishes shall sit;” overcoming ignorant bliss
Bliss of freedom
Bliss of will
Bliss of chores not making time still
“The plant gets more attention…”
That’s what I’ll say
Jokingly
Although,…
THOSE ARE THE FUCKING DISHES
Excuse my language, as they have excused my hands
The poet I am
The man with a plan
TO GET THE DAMN DISHES WASHED
First account, cashed out
The account? The marble top
Completely cleared- and clean- of dishes
Because…. one of us… is petty
And is not washing the dishes
Supporting the habit
Claiming a “reward”
For washing the dishes…
“I get it… I get it”
I’ll smirk
And, just walk away
As I wash what I need
Indeed
Mission: succeed
Checklist: greed
Of pettiness earned
Dishes stacked
Clean? Dirty? The answer?
Fuck that
