Queen of the Screw Ups

The Queen of the Screw Up's! That would be me!
I wear that crown With the greatest of ease!

So, bow down people, show some respect.
To the most majestic screw up, you will never forget.

I screw up everything, that is ample.
Take my bank account, for example 
In the negative it always stays.
I screw that up everyday.

Bills pile up they never get paid
Ignoring them wishing they would go away
Electricity, water, credit card statements pile up in a high-rise 
My credit score is lower than my shoe size 

Relationships are destroyed and  broken,
leaving with no apologies spoken.

It’s not easy being queen, I had to earn that crown,
and I don’t plan on stepping down.
So, All hail her royal Highness and kneel before me,
who screws things up to the third degree .

I had to FAV this one, Rebecca, as it is perfect to re-read when I am feeling irritated with myself. So thank you for being my therapist in the form of a poem today.
