To Shower Or Not To Shower
To shower or not to shower
That is the question
That assaults me
Every time I scratch my head
Wondering
How doing nothing
Is making me sweat.
Well, I do some things
Like look out the window
And make sure the street is still there.
I love trash pick-up day
Like a little kid excited
To see the big trucks.
I check the mail frequently
The bills are even exciting now.
I do time on a stationary bicycle
Which somehow seems metaphorically
Mind boggling
Yet could be related to
My under arm conundrum.
OH, I sneak out and pet the neighbors cat
And in a fit of corona induced insanity
I trimmed my neighbors hedges.
Oh well, just another day in hell
Without the flames.....
