To Do or Not To Do

The dishes piled in the sink,

The clothes falling out of the laundry basket,

The empty fruit basket on the dining table,

The fridge full of old items and needing a restocking,

The garbage bin waiting to be emptied out,

The dust settled on the floor and furniture,

The bedsheets and pillow covers needing a changeover,

All look at me as if asking,

"Today or tomorrow?"

And I find myself wondering,

"To do or not to do?"

I sigh and get up to finish them one by one,

Chuckling, I answer my own question,

"There really is no question here, Mr. Shakespeare."
