~Tongue in Cheek~

I'm not one of the perfect ones
there are a couple of flaws in me
My house is always neat and clean
but only on rainy days, you see
I never participate in gossip
when lunching with the girls
We just rush home, and with e-mail
pass on the little pearls
I never try to procrastinate
when there's a job to be done
Rushing in, I finish it
who me....take time out for fun
I never indulge in vanity
or worry about my weight
I eat what takes my fancy
and laugh in the face of fate
There is no anger in my life
I park it at the door
Everything is talked out
and then I give them...what for
When jealousy tries creeping in
I stop it where it stands
We duke it out way before
it takes the upper hand
With the patience of a saint
and the tolerance of a priest
My life moves on oiled wheels
without the tiniest squeak....yeah right!

state of weariness
focused lack of attention
creative slump...
