The Last Straw
Larry the domestic robot.


The Last Straw

Larry the domestic robot,
driven at last to despair,
cries, “My life’s a total knot.
Do the dishes, comb your hair,
make the beds and sweep the floor,
serve breakfast and walk the pup,
wake the kids, answer the door.
Are you just winding me up?”


Line count: 8
Rhymed abab
For Express It In Eight, 11.01.22
Prompt: As per illustration.
