No Procrastination

Must get on with that poet-ry
while it’s still fresh in me mem-o-ry
where’s the paper, where’s the pen
must do a rough draft before I begin
oh, cuppa tea, cuppa tea, calling for  me
What’s happening on facebook? Lemme see
…………must wash up after  tea
trying to keep  the place tidy you see
Lemme see if anything’s on facebook for me!
Cuppa coffee now, cos last time I had tea
me phone just went ping – who the hell bothering me?
……… lemme see, lemme see who’s texting me

Oh, what was I was about to do? oh me mem-o-ry!
always playing tricks on me!
Washup, check facebook, tea, coffee?
now it looks like the housework’s screaming to be done
better do some  cos I’ve done none for ages,
oh whats that on the TV
That reality show is about to begin
I watch it every morn-ing
Let the fighting begin

Well, while I feel inspired I must do that poet-try
washup, check facebook, tea, coffee
What’s happening on facebook? Lemme see

easy peasy
 you see 
No procrastination for me!
