    Trying to avoid housework
    Time for a new subject, yeah?
    I am masterchef

    housework calls my name
    but other things occupy
    the mind that's waiting

    Is housework the next
    topic to capture our best
    creative musings?

    Mould and mildew grow
    In my misty damp bathroom.
    Oh! for sunshine there.

    Well... Belly Belly
    and house-keeping do not mix.
    Toys strewn on the floor.

    Hope I did it right.

    Stick to the subject
    Or you risk Marydeans wrath
    Weather or housework?

    Ange, clever are you
    pity it's not raining men
    men who like to clean

    old toast i see you
    lurking under the sofa
    apathy guards you

    brimming potty reeks
    veg peelings fester softly
    lazy, i surf on

    Crumble in oven
    Is it burned? Timer long gone.
    Why am I still here!?

    ETA:
    Still good, needs more time
    Smells delicious, can not wait
    to devour it

    I, too, have crumble:
    Apple, mixed peel and currants.
    Cornflakes make great top.

    baby sleeps gently,
    dishes lurk ominously,
    leave them till morning

    to bed with a book,
    soon to rise for the teething
    baby alarm clock

    ETA:
    Oh Nelle I wonder
    is devour two syllables?
    if so you miss one
