I got one of the Swiffer things,
The blue stick with the replaceable head.
It is really good.
The dust sticks and I just toss old heads.

I start at the top, where the stored stuff
don’t get seen no more. Trophies, Awards,
…things that certify my former usefulness.

As I work down, there’s the books,
History, Philosophy, God, Allah and Thomas Jefferson.
Next to those are machines.

The ashes and dander that do not stick to the new head
fall to the floor.
The Dirt Devil needs a new Type U.
I’ll go get one, well, they come in threes,

You clean too?
I think I'm falling in love! Hahaha!
Swiffers are awesome, take it from the cleaning lady!

The Swiffer is so much more quiet than a vacuum; they work rather well, too. But, Tidy TD (I'll have to remember that nickname), my imagined image of you is one of living in a huge mansion...no neighbors to hear the vacuum running...even at 3 AM. Speaking of 3 AM, Walmart is open if you want to go buy that 3-pack of vacuum bags, LOL!

that was so stupid that i'm goin to beat my head against the wall until i'm unconscious jus so i dont have to think about it

Wow, that is SO random. It does sound kind of poetic when you read it twice. Strange but cool.

Why is it there are never any Type U bags when you need them?

Tidy TD is a poem for everyone. Thank you for sharing. Love, honey

I have always had problems with those swiffers
I use the mop to do the floors
I was thinking of the handheld vacuums
they always need recharging.
If you have floor all the way through the house there is no need to vacuum and at 11:00 PM

Sunday morning, nearly 10 AM. I think I am going to vacuum the apartment and annoy the neighbours. Moi aussi! I've got one of those Swiffer things: globalisation....

I do that often. I save the vacuuming for last and it's usually about that time. Since there is just me no one gets upset.

It depends on your relationship with your neighbors.

This gives a whole new meaning to vacuum poems!
Our ancestors once had sand on their floors, in place of tile and carpet (which had not been invented)...that would make your neighbors and any pets you might have...happy.
