Things That Need to be Done

 

There are things in my life, that I really need to do.

Those that stay in the corner of the mind - not old, not new.

I need to buy a light bulb, I need to fix my creaking bathroom door.

I need to remove cobwebs behind my bed, I need to go to the pillow store.

I need to clean my clothes shelf and give away a few,

Ok, not a few, I have put on weight now - all the ones that are not new.

I need to change the battery in my weighing machine,

I need to find my bank password.

I need to get a haircut, I need to set some curd.

I really need to clean the kitchen shelves, not to mention the fridge,

I need to call the tailor to stitch up my sleeves.

I need to throw away some shoes, which i do not wear,

I need to ask my maid to sweep under the sofa, to do that myself, I do not dare.

I am a normal 40 year old, I am healthy and I work, I make list of things to do in office and I make it work as per plan.

But the things I mentioned above I somehow never can.

I end my day randomly shopping and somehow manage to buy another shoe. 

What-o-what, how-o-how and who-o-who.
