Procrastination

There are so many things I must get done But instead I procrastinate. I further delay to write this poem; Life’s priorities will just have to wait. I don’t get paid to write my rhymes; On the job I get paid for I can’t concentrate. I’ve got plenty of tasks to take up my time, But instead I procrastinate. I’ve got a long list of domestic chores, But instead I procrastinate; My wife continues to add some more To the Honey-Do list I really hate. The more things that I have to do, The more likely nothing gets done to date. There may even be things I should do for you, But instead I procrastinate.

i luv procrastination. it keeps me sane in an insane world where there is always something that is more important and needs to be done immediately. my wife used to keep a honey-do list. one day it disappeared, never found it. i wonder what happened to it ... great write, chuck

You summed it all up nicely in this work that has great descriptiveness and rhyming. I thought I should post these comments now instead of waiting to do it later.
