Procrastinator's Pledge
I solemnly vow to put aside that which must be done until the absolute last second;
Not because I can't do it, but merely that something indulgent has beckoned.
I solemnly vow to find every possible task and claim it must be done,
Even a trip to the dental hygienist, I think, would be more fun.
I solemnly vow to sleep not a wink the night before my project is due,
So that when asked if I'm feeling alright, I claim, "Must be the flu."
I solemnly swear to underestimate the time it will take,
so that an illness on the day it is due, I must fake.
I solemnly swear from this point forward to avoid at all costs
that feared and fateful event of running into my boss.
To this solemn oath that I have sworn, I must confess,
Yes... it is true... my project is already overdue. :-P
