Notes About The Poem

Neat Freak

a neat freak is compulsive
excessive and obsessed
their day revolves around cleaning

a neat freak has a one-track mind
and will not budge their focus
their one true friend is bleach

a neat freak disinfects all day
intolerant to imperfection
time and effort never a problem

a neat freak will not rest 
till every thing's in order
and every surface shines

let's not mince words
a neat freak is maniacal
and a neat freak i am not
