But to Swerve

To clean or not to clean
The place is
A proper excuse
Or, another condition to shelve
An early morning shower.
Wilson is a help mostly, but
Not in these issues of destiny.
A sweet embarrassment handles
A one is set to all, dawn
Another seldom emerges
From strings,
And the third as always guessed
Prana!
That's what I nickname you.
Me too, don't like the smell
Or dare notice a puff of it
If you just stretch out of my spine
Together we'll do all housekeeping
With the freshening aroma of your voice
Singing allover airs
I may try mine either, under-shower
Having our breakfast while scanning TV
As a gypsy couple, you go to work
Picking dawns, and
I'm back to bed chasing dreams away
Like flies.
