Oh, Vacuum Dear Vacuum. You Suck.
An Ode to a beloved household tool

Oh, vacuum dear vacuum, please help me this day.
Glide ‘cross the carpet. These crumbs we will slay.
A simple wee task, we can get it done soon.
Together as partners, we’ll tidy these rooms.
*
Oh, vacuum dear vacuum, there’s company coming.
I flick on the “on” switch, and then you start humming.
Together we’ll slide cross the large living room,
Then move to the dining and then the bedroom.
*
Oh, vacuum dear vacuum, why must it be so?
That you cling to the carpet and refuse to let go.
My arms are exhausted. My shoulders they ache,
But I must clean this mess up. Please give me a break.
*
Oh, vacuum dear vacuum, you truly do suck.
And not in a good way, you miserable fuck.
When I push on your handle to do a quick chore,
You scream like a toddler and stick to the floor.
*
Oh, vacuum dear vacuum, your grip kindly loose.
Cuz, I feel like it’s uphill, I’m pushing a moose.
My once precious vacuum, you are such a pain.
I’m ‘bout to flip you over and rip out your brain.
