Mental notes

Thabaknee
Sweep the rooms then the yard
prepare breakfast, once e'eryone's eaten
do the dishes, then the do
the laundry, but I mustn't forget about
the chickens, feed them and also 
pick some eggs, the garden!
I must visit it for some fresh veggies and see
what to cook, around 11 o'clock
prepare the mid-day meal, by then
my damn heals shall be throbbing, the clothes!
once they're dry, iron them
and fold them nicely 
just like how my Lord and Lady like them, around 4 o'clock
start chopping veggies, boil some rice and 
grill the chicken as my Lady 
likes it on Wednesdays, some lamb stew
and fry some pork, get the 
table set; white plates, forks and knives
and make sure e'erything is set 
before the guest arrive, feed on scraps 
once the guest are gone, and do
the dishes before I rest, but first
I must take a bath and eat, 
so that at sunrise ill start my chores.

You may see the world thru my words. You may see yourself thru my words. But mostly you may assume my poetry is about me. If a line kicks off the edge, imagine what a poem would do.
