A piece of paper fell off the desk And landed under the chair, That was two weeks ago and I don't know why it is still there. The television needs to be switched off And I forgot to do it last night, I woke up to the morning news And realized it is sunshine alright.
No matter how hard I try I always manage to spill the coffee, And then wonder maybe it will help If instead I start drinking some tea! I have forgotten how to use the doorbell Since there is no use for it here, So when someone uses it so seldom I say to my self, "That's the phone, dear."
I watch the sunshine and darkness at night Change shades of the pizza box that sits, Maybe I need to throw it out someday So I can replace it with cheese sticks. I spend time to make sure I always buy Weekly items that will help me exist, But the first few things I choose instead Are somehow never on my shopping list.
Writing down notes at the back of Some old American Express envelope, And then I sit in front of my laptop "I can find those notes now, I hope!" Getting home at three in the morning On early Saturdays is a routine now, I just have to be a little careful since Once I left the door unlocked somehow.
Oh! What paradise this is, my little den Of happiness and grief that come and go, As I write this poem to express myself "I left the rice cooking too long! Oh no!"
With no offense to anyone, I like this living so. Not all men are fools. Some are bachelors, you know.
