I do not want to sweep the floor
nor wash the dishes any more
or mow the grass, or make the bed
my cooking skills have long been dead
I open a can when I want to eat
the dust keeps gathering round my feet
the garbage piles outside the door
and all the rest I just ingnore
I found the Internet you see
so now its me and my P.C.
The verse below was sent by email and permission to add to my poem:
If I may be so bold to attempt to add your missing piece:
I took the time to buy a flower
I don't have time to take a shower
It helps to mask this noxious smell
That lingers in this house I dwell.
Barney

David, I forgot to work into the poem about no time for a bath, so that may be what you smell!
But what does it mean if I didn't want to do any of those things BEFORE I met Gather?
Auntie Smedley, I can say that in 1998, I stopped everything when I discovered the Internet. Gather came along for me last month and now I have the Gather addiction. I guess if you had this problem, if it is a problem, before you found Gather, then it is okay as long as you can live with it. I know I can.
If anyone else would like to add a verse, please feel free to do so.
Auntie, I must admit, I did keep a 'little' bit cleaner house before I found the Internet.
