Procrastination

I have to go
I cannot stay
I'll come again another day

Work must be done
And still I stay
I'll do the work another day

A list of things that wait their turn
Unattended on the stand
I've stared at them time and again

The list must wait
I'm too absorbed
To do the things it has been told

The days go by
The dust builds up
The floors so sticky for the fly

The chores will wait
For I must stay
I'll do the tasks another day
