Come gather ‘round, my curious friend,

For we shall embark on a journey to comprehend,

The perplexing phenomenon that plagues us all,

Procrastination, that elusive siren’s call.

~~~~~~

Oh, why do we delay, you may inquire?

It’s the allure of tomorrow that sets us afire.

With grand intentions and dreams so high,

We believe tomorrow will never pass us by.

~~~~~~

Perfection, oh what a daunting demand!

Procrastination, our escape route so grand.

We fear our efforts will fall short of grace,

So we put things off, just in case.

~~~~~~

Ah, distractions! They beckon with allure,

Seducing our focus, oh how they obscure.

From social media’s captivating threads,

To cute cat videos that fill our heads.

~~~~~~

Tasks piled high, a mountain to climb,

Our minds overwhelmed, running out of time.

Fear not, my friend, for a strategy we’ll find,
