If I Had a Clone

If I had a clone
I would send her to my faculty meetings on Wednesdays.
I would have her do my paperwork.
I would have her clean this bedroom.
I would not be too friendly,
I would not engage her in idle conversation.
I would keep her busy, doing everything I detest.
She would vacuum, cook, clean, dust, and mop.
If I had a clone.

Hmmm...I didn't know you did any of those things, Caren. I thought Joe did. I think Joe needs a clone!

I do not any more, but I did once upon a time.
