Avoiding small responsibilities
And waiting for the dark cloud to subside
Sometimes the cloud sticks around longer than expected
And the small responsibilities start piling up
Until they’re an unbearably long list of unchecked to-do boxes
In which case, the dark cloud begins to not look so bad
Compared to the monster of a mess I create
I could just stay curled up underneath its shade…
