'Multi-Tasking' (A Bit Naughty, Beware!)*
They praise multi-tasking
that's not for me
can't be watching TV
when I'm writing poetry.
I'll listen well
to what you are speaking
will not heed my mobile's ringing
I frown upon multi-tasking.
It's such a daily pleasure
sitting before the table-- eating
the papers are full of Covid 19 news
I desist such reading.
Loving one's spouse is fidelity
multi-loving is adultery
( no doubt, also moral bankruptcy!)
I do hope you'll agree with me.
* after Oscar Wilde, G.K. Chesterton and Mark Twain
