Day one of lunar new year
As usual, took out the first shirt I found
From the cartoon tee drawer
Because mom was saying
The tank top I am wearing is kinda
Inappropriate, given that
My house will be flooded with folks
Whatever it is
Not even bothered to
change into contact lens
Come on it's a Sunday
Lunar new year is kinda significant to me
Because it's actually
The day I mopped the floor the most
Throughout the year
Five rounds at least
After every group of folk left
Because the floor got sticky
And it's still sticky after the five rounds
And my mom is the last few
Who insists on serving home beverage
In glasses, and also home made dessert
So can imagine the piles to clear
Meet my new found friend
But can't use it for day one, still
Respecting the old tradition of
Keeping the broom away
A cordless vacuum cleaner
And can be detached to be a
Really portable hand piece
For the door railing
I am not able to clean for ages
Dad woke me up from nap after 8
I was like startled from a long dream
"huh time to go work??"
Time to mop the floor another round
Before I can resume some
Interacting with my new toy again
Tomorrow
Don't you think that
His colour
is way too "Iron-man"
