Motivation

as the vacuum sucks up
specks of unwanted dust
and my last aspirations 

i think to myself
"how will you save the world
when you are so lazy and tired?"

i tried coffee, which i drank at three
but it was quite late and i couldn't 
escape the pull of the pillow

i tried yoga for enhanced flexibility
both in mind and in spirit
but got bruises and sore muscles instead

i went to great lengths to find
motivation to work and slave 
and sweat and get to it

but i found no motivation at all
just an ice cream bucket
and a good romantic comedy
so that i could feel sorry 
for myself
