Notes About The Poem

Written, December 13, 2025

Neatnik OCD

My fear of confusion and clutter
puts my driven needs in a flutter!
Closed closets and attic
hide disarray static.
"She's organized," I hear them mutter!

I live in close contact with a similar person that you describe in this delightful Limerick, Sandra. It's what I call organised clutter! ~ Congratulations on placing 1st :) Regards // paul

My mom goes so far as to even have the closeted stuff looking organized. She was so clean and neat, I became the opposite. Good one. Congratulations
