The Slow Spin Cycle

Empty the basket,

un-knot stinking socks,

stuff it all inside,

Non-fast coloureds D.

Empty the machine,

remove grey fluff,

stuff it all inside,

ninety minutes cool.

Empty the dryer,

iron, fold, sort,

stuff it all inside,

shut the drawer.

Empty the jar,

tie on new bib,

stuff it all inside,

check stinking nappy.

Empty out the shit,

wipe, smear, fold,

stuff it all inside

do up the pins.

Empty mammary glands,

lift jumper, hold breast,

stuff it all inside,

burp, rock, cry.
