I Am Chaos

I spent a day or three redesigning the inside of every closet

Charted out the kitchen cabinets

Tossed the things I never use

I entered all my shoes painstakingly

Into a database

Used the output to display them

By colour, height and style

Oh how wonderful it is

But

I am chaos

I wage a constant battle

Against my own struggle for a magazine photo ready home

I am chaos

I walk into a room and explode

Igniting the dark rule of disarray

But when I close my eyes I can see

Counters clear and tables free

Chairs that can be sat upon

Without moving one damn thing

Laundry folded put away

Dishes done three times a day

Shampoo bottles in a line

Hair pins, make-up stowed at hand

It can't always be this way

For

I am chaos

I wage a constant battle

Against my own struggle for a magazine photo ready home

I am chaos

I walk into a room and explode

Igniting the dark rule of disarray

People say let it go

Only those without goals can have very tidy homes

But I want to have it all

I don't see why I can't

But

I am Chaos

I am Chaos

I am Chaos

I am Chaos

I am Chaos

I am Chaos
