When we were created, we were given limited senses,
perhaps so as not to overwhelm our finite minds.
Like God, we delight in order, and there is much that we can do.
But our appetite for inputs has become a perilous addiction
and strains the limits even of our strengthening reasons.
We cannot tease the story from the storm.
So we snap-

If I have the time, I will organize
my many drawers – in the kitchen first.
That junk drawer there – oh, it is the worst!
Bedroom, then bathroom. I’ll prioritize!
And when I’m done with that, where will I store
my poetry? Where will I put it all?
In the bookcase against my room’s long wall
or in my drawers, of which I need more?
Drawers for papers I’ve written things on;
drawers for doo-dads (I’ve many of those);
for coupons and bills. How everything grows!
I lose things in piles for thinking they’re gone!
I just want to sit here making a rhyme,
not doing the mundane things I should do.
Too often I’ve been down this avenue -
but drawers I’ll do . . if I have the time!

Organize
Empresas de sucesso
e também a saúde humana,
entendem a importância
da constância.
Além disso,
reconhecem o papel crucial
da visibilidade
para a regularidade.

Things that matter.
Not useless data.
Unlest without your behest.
Cooked up by the NSA.
And the Mad Hatter.
In the end all is just chatter.
Trying not to shatter.
Either by pity patter or splatter.
If I had my druthers bruthas (and sistas).
I'll take the latter.
Organize or scatter.

She hates my clutter, how it is all around
Things that are lost, have yet to be found
Saying I just maybe have a little too much
Well everyone has to have their own clutch
Did I mess everything to end up far enough
How will I ever organize all of this stuff
