The Lazy Laundress

I am a firm believer
In using of a load of
Fresh, clean laundry

 (Piled, warm and fresh,
  Drawn from the dryer’s depths
  Atop my unmade bed
  With grand intentions tossed
  Toward follow through with a
  Folding frenzy)

As, instead–
A whimsically-whooshed
Spontaneously-strewn? No, decidedly thrown:
Throw rug
Beside said bed
Into which I crawl,
Sleepily, but not void of guilt
In the evening’s embrace.
