PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

dishes pile up

in the kitchen sink

and I feel

no motivation

to do anything

I sip a beer

and drink Barenjager

not feeling much

like moving a muscle

the dishes will wait

if there’s any cockroaches

they’ll be fed tonight

and I don’t care

one way of the other

I sip the beer

and look at a yard glass

I bought

at a beer festival

It holds 3 pints

When will I ever use it?

probably never

will I drink that much

of the same beer 

in one sitting

I’m now the proud owner

of a totally useless item

and I can’t even get up 

for the occasion
