The Ulterior Motives Behind Dusting

The top shelves required dusting, so
			I looked for my stool high and low.
			No luck--but a chair
			would do. Then up there
			I cleaned that top shelf. It did glow.

			My cleaning cloths fell to the floor.
			I had to get down to find more.
			I dressed as I did
			because my man Sid
			was watching. Life's never a bore!
