I Spy: Laundry Hell

I spy despair and guilt, toil and Tide.
Too much laundry to even attempt to hide.
Beach towels, even though now it's Fall.
Clothes stacked so long they've outgrown all.
A squishy blue pillow that doesn't belong,
Mommy's ratty Size L thongs,
T-shirts by the thousands in Boys size 8-10.
I put them away but they're back again.
Need more Kelley? A hefty collection of her great essays, What's the Matter With Mommy?, is now available on Amazon.com.
