Chores

Cleaning the house, Cleaning my room Deciding what to use, the mop or the broom trying to do the dishes while washing the floor why do i have to clean and paint the door? Oh my word!, there's so much more Why do cleaning have to be a bore I'm busy cleaning the lounge and the kitchen while my siblings are siting inside eating juicy,delicious chicken Every part of my body is getting numb Why do chores have to be so dumb? Cleaning the house, Cleaning my room Deciding what to use the mop or the broom

subject matter is one we all face. i like the humor in the line "Deciding what to use the mop or the broom". Can easily picture siblings eating while the poet cleans.. Good use of repetition.
