Adventures of Procrastination

Procrastination
dawns cowl and cape
with the best of 'em.

Ready

to speed toward
any clues of Productivity:
snippets of afternoon yard work,
scribbles of next week's lecture,
smidgens of spring cleaning.

Utlity belt fitted
with all the essentials:
Direct TV,
Xbox 360,
Facebook,
a dirty magazine,
a deck of cards,
a plush pillow.
Robin. Unnecessary.

Those supervillains
stand no chance,
let alone the lot of us:
nameless henchmen,
no Kryptonite in hand,
beaten down, disregarded,
left unconscious,
face first in a pool
of our own drool.
Not even worth
one quick glance back.
