My Lazy Day

It's my day off
Can I sleep longer
My body agree
My mind disagree 
My body needs to rest
My mind scream many things needs be done
But I don't want to get up 
Oh yes your room is a mess
But who cares
You do you lazy Smurf 
Oh but it's my day off
So what
So I don't have to do anything I don't want to
Ugh, who do you think you are
Me the one who's body is tired and need some lazy day in bed
Where do you think you at on Guam
No but I wish right now
Your lazy smurf don't have days off in NY 
I just don't care right about now
Oh ok if you say so
Yes I say so and I'm gonna call it
... My lazy day...
Oh but you have so much to do
Nope I'm not listening 
Oh but you need to go get coffee
Nope I don't drink coffee
What about for lunch and dinner
I'll eat PBJ for lunch and soup for dinner
Ugh I gave up but you're gonna pay for it
Yey it's about time you persistent mind
Now let's both relax and read some of the great poems on PoetrySoup
Yes I'd love that all day long my lazy day... Smile!
