My list of whys

I’ve been wondering for so long

I’ve been scratching my head trying to figure out

I never thought things would go like this,

But now I have to go back downstairs and try to work it out,

Why is the sink always full of dishes???

Why?

Why?

I washed them just last night,

Now they are nasty and smelly and attracting the flies.

I was told someone would help, but those were just lies.

Why,

Why is the sink always full of dish-es.

I’m always tired when I come home from working hard all day,

Now I’m staring at a pile of nasty dishes and all I can say

Is why,

Why is the sink always full of these nasty, smelly dishes?

And now I have to walk the dog again as well
