Hermit Crab's Cushion

(first stanza only for contest)

We hermit crabs smile at our grousing
a crack in my shell needs espousing. 
   I spy a cigarette; 
  the filter, perfect fit -
could it cushion my cleft in housing?

If filters could help tummy’s small crack
better shell I won’t have to hijack.
   Should I try a quick smoke
   while I  nit-pick and croak?
Then laziness can get back on track.
