STRAIGHTENING UP

The first thing God does when He

Decides to be you for a while is

To straighten up your apartment.

After making your bed, putting clothes away,

Vacuuming, dusting and then vacuuming again

He opens the paper bag that's been sitting

In your living room since Thanksgiving

Removes the baking pan and sets it to soak.

He decides that you're the type of person

Who keeps old bags because they might be useful

Someday so He makes birds under your window

And shakes the crumbs to them before

Carefully folding the bag and putting it

In a pocket of your three-piece corduroy suit

Along with a note that reads "No one

Besides you likes this suit. Get rid of it!"
