The order of disorder |

The order of disorder Of all the effects that lays low this man, Is the intrusion of a wives cleaning plan. Although disorder is the rule of my lay, There is order in the turmoil of my way. Each heap to me a specific pile of stuff, Though it looks like the acme of scruff. It is to my mind, filed in my order. But to hers, it's the height of disorder. I cannot put a lock on some of my goal, For she has free access to all of my soul. But my garden blooms flowers in sensitive soil. Not to be transplanted by cleanings foil. So now precious time is lost you see, To put back disorder, makes sense to me. And I am saddened and she is remiss, But I'm sure it will all clear with a kiss. When I was young t'was my personal hell. But now the bells toll the sound of, Oh Well. |

On my desk, disordered order Is the order that I know Until my secretary comes And fixes it, her face aglow And then she realizes that Her work to me didn't fix a thing For now disorder rules my mind Cause I cannot find anything I know the feeling, Sy I liked your poem, Liz |

Sy, I too suffer from this affliction , however I refer to it as " a place for everything and everything all over the place " . Guilty of disorderly conduct and sentenced to the "stute". Bailiff , see this man out! |

Just as your wife it bothers me For piles look like much debris They scream for order, don't you see? And quite in need of cleaning's spree! To each his own, Is what I say What floats your boat, what makes your day Whatever helps the poet write Whatever makes his soul take flight! Great poem, Seymour....Seymour....is that you under that pile?! Denise |

LoL, boy can I relate! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |
