Out of the chaos, a need for organization grew stronger

Reaching for a list and some boxes, the war began

Dedicating time to the battle, slowly the chaos was pushed back

Except they never saw the betrayal that was about to happen

Right at the moment the house was set straight, they had twins and that’s when chaos won

Putting together a list of steps

Looking for any fallacies and fixing them

After all of that was complete, he put his scheme into motion

Nothing went right after that.  So much for a good…

Being sick is no fun

Looking at your to-do list

And not having the energy needed to check anything off

How much longer till bed?

List (an acrostic poem)

Looking at all the items that were on the page

It was enough to make her depressed

So, she pulled out her lighter and flicked the switch

The smoke was her peace offering with herself

Culling one more bit of weight from his soul.

Knowing that tomorrow the boss would just add five more.

Looking at everything to do in front of me,

It gets overwhelming and I begin to sweat.

So how do I attack such a formidable task

The only thing I can think of is start a new …

Factory (an acrostic poem)

Focused on manufacturing

And maximizing profits

Creating parts and pieces for consumption

Then spitting them out into the hopefully accepting world

Ordering the chaos of creation into ridged steps

Reaching for peek throughput and yields

Yet that damn Murphy was always on the visitor’s list

Looking at everything that needs to be done

It gets to be so overwhelming

So you want to just make all the items disappear

That means it’s time to burn the…

Fix (an acrostic poem)

 

Finding all the things that are wrong can be depressing

It can make you want to just throw everything out and get something new

X that idea out, sit down with your list, start at the top and rebuild it and make it yours

List (an acrostic poem)

Lining items in a row

It can be rather intimidating

So instead I prefer to throw them into a grab bag

Then when I pull out the next task to do if feels spontaneous
