Poetry Housewife's Lament The sink’s stopped and the toilet’s not -- It’s running over the floor. My two-year-old is at it again Drawing stickmen on the door. My husband’s late. The meat’s too done, The gravy’s getting too thick. The water has boiled right out of the pot and The potatoes are starting to stick. Now the house is flooded, The door’s all chalk, The meal has burnt away. But I don’t care! For this has been One of my better days.
