Food shampoo, applesauce lotion
constant noise, constant motion
dirt in the bathtub, draining in swirls
I'm checking those bellybuttons for pearls!
a dinning room carpet that always goes crunch
remnants from breakfast, left-overs from lunch
cooking for armies, only 5 for dinner
you know mac n' cheese is always a winner!
someday: tidy kitchen, healthy dinner, empty table
and sad little me, eating dinner watching cable.
