A Poem about my least favourite household chore. (2 points)


with gloves pulled to elbow high

and plastic bags wrapped to my thighs

a heavy coat, a torque, a mask

almost prepared for that fateful task


in corner dark, aroma strong

chokes your breath like a thong

i muster all the strength i can

its that dreaded time

the scooping of the cat pan
