Lazy Guy

The weeds in his yard were sky high
"Just PULL them!" nagged his wife, said he'd try
But the thought brought him sorrow
Said, "I'll do it tomorrow!"
As he sat, eating junk food and fries.

haha, readine what LIv said to you. This certainly portrays a lazy guy! If you had had the syllable count right, this would have done better. Congrats in my contest.

I think the wife better get some Round Up and spray em' herself. :) Once that laziness sets in, it's a pretty self perpetuating disease. :) Loved the Mark Twain quote. Never heard that one before.
