Kimmy Holmes Poet I do not know?

The House

I declare
I'm cleanin this nasty ass house!

Where did everybody go?

Now I gotta little time to myself
I'm gonna push it
I'm puttin on my music
And I'm gonna.......

I'm gonna sway as I spray
I'm gonna dust as I bust
OUT!

I'm alone and I'm gonna clean
things are gonna gleam
I'll polish the glass
while I'm shakin my ass

I move my vacuum 
back and forth
like a lover
that has no other 

I'm gonna use him like me

I need my mop
to tell me STOP!
take a cigarette break

But the floors never leave me alone

Oh, and washing machine, dryer
no, you're not fired!
I'll get to you as soon as I can
You're lucky to have a job

Appliances crying out for my help
We need electricity
We need water

Well, so do I!
And I need sleep
I need... some sense
and a maid?
