Poem complaining about getting out of bed

It's like getting sand in your toes,

As unlucky as losing your watch,

It's a useless burden,

It's a spider on my mattress slowly crawling up,

There's not much time left ticking on the clock.


Annoying like an ambulance siren,

It's a human sacrifice,

It's my toys blowing up one by one,

I just can't ignore it,

But I just can't do it.


It's an explosion in my guts,

A lion raging inside me,

There's an urge inside me,

But on the outside I'm lazy,

And it's driving me crazy!


But I heave myself out of bed;

The first five seconds are like icicles on my fingertips,

I stumble to the dining table,

Slow like a sloth,

And there, perfectly laid, undisturbed...

Is...

The most delicious breakfast ever!
