A Procrastinator’s Prayer

Bless this mess oh Lord I pray,

That I might clean it up some other day,

Though I might put off today yet another job,

Please don't let my friends think me too much a slob,

The dishes that might build-up in the sink,

I pray, won't raise to much of a stink,

Those piles of bills I have yet to pay,

Please let me pay them another way,

Though pen and paper are now in-hand,

They seem to me like contraband,

I think it's a fear of a jobs completion,

That is the root of my hesitation,

I hope it won’t cause any harm,

When I try to remember third times the charm,

It seems that the dust bunnies are the only ones growing,

Though too, on me, a larger beltline is showing,

Although I owe many, written replies,

My lack of action I'm sure draws sighs,

So, though it's a procrastinator's prayer I offer to pray,

I hope to complete this prayer,

...some other day.
