I think Sloth is one of my favourites! A special mention to Devo... I grew up in that house! You made me think of my brother, who endured more chores than we did. You'd think he'd become a sloth, but no. He did become an alcoholic addict, but always had the cleanest house. Funny how things turn out and what we remember. Your poem took me to that place... 🤍
