Haiku Friday

Procrastination
I have so much to do and
Yet I sit and drink

Four cups of coffee
Hoping it will pump me up
To start and finish

Jobs that are at hand
Bathrooms, kitchen, my bedroom
All need to be cleaned

Then I look around
And realize it’s not bad
Just my OCD

I want to impress
They’re coming to our new house
I want it to shine

It’ll all get done
Even though now I sit here
Procrastination

    Smile and show off the kids. They’ll ignore anything left undone when you shove Davey at them.

    I think you should join CyProWriMo. Then you’d feel VALIDATED in your procrastination. Just a thought. Liked the haiku. Don’t work too hard!

    Loved your Haiku, Mishelle. :)

    When I sat down during lunch break at school, I jotted down some possible Haiku topics and second from the top was “Procrastination”. So . . . I’ll have to use that theme, about which I am so knowledgeable, sometime, too. :)

    awesome haiku but, wouldn’t expect anything else! i know all about procrastination but, sometimes, work is better done under pressure!
    remember to breathe!

    Count me in on the OCD. But mine must be stronger because I still see clutter everywhere. Oh, wait, that’s ’cause there is clutter everywhere. Damn kids!
