What is this?? What's this I see??

A chunk of lint is mocking me!

Did I need decoration there?

A bit of fluff 'tween near and far?

I do not need a dust bunny

Perched on stomach, nose, or knee!

Not the window, not the hall,

Not the floor, not the wall!

How does fluff just hang in air?

What's a fine web doing there?

Spider, I do not mean to shout,

But take your decoration out, out, out!

My enemy, he brought his friends,

The party's on! I'm at wit's end!

Did the fun just never stop?

It's been a week, and all hop-hop

Of dusty bunnies moving in!

Oh, what a state this room has been!

My vorpal vacuum, snicker snack-

Has cowed some of the fluffies back

Off the floor and out the door-

Just don't come round here no more!

Fuzzball, why you look so sad?

Yes, it's clean, you can't be mad

Houses must be neat and tidy!

I can't spend time looking for heidy

Holes where dust accumulates!

And certainly not for your mates

To flop as if they own the place!

I've not the time, I've not the space.

And you'd better not think, prithee,

Of raising here a family

This is my house, my home, my life!

And where would you look for a wife?

This bachelor pad's mine, I declare!

It's neither here nor neither there

To you whether I wash the room,

I have dust rag, mop, and broom

And know how to use them all,

In the kitchen, down the hall,

And yes, this room, this whole house, too!

Bunny, why do you look blue?

But....

I.....

Well, I suppose you live here, yes,

And you deserve a life, I guess,

But stay-in guests are just too much!

Perhaps a space of such and such

Dimensions where you reign supreme?

And I will find a place to clean

That leaves you space to grow and thrive

But I can also feel alive

Without things covered all in dust?

Is it a deal? Or is it a bust?

You agree, my former foe?

Shake on it! Away we go

Let's make lunch and celebrate!

Make sure the lint stays on your plate.
