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!

Dear Carole,
What a lesson in this tongue-in-cheek poem. You have written this with humour and grace. I love it!
I agree with Erny. If this is a slump, then I want to read what you write when inspired!

if this work is what you call a slump, I can hardly wait for you to be clicking!
When I feel things getting stale, I switch to another form for a while, or read what others have done before me.
Deputy Dave Jenkins sets out to find the murderer of the local high school principal, aided by a voice from the grave that is sometimes helpful and sometimes misleading.
"Murder isn't usually this funny."
Amazon reviewer
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
