Tuesday Poem - You'd think it'd be easy

You'd think it'd be easy
To get your books for sale online
But just as everything looks about fine
It all falls apart, time after time

You'd think it'd be easy
To lose weight after having babies
But those midgets will drive you crazy
And cupcake solace it a definite maybe

You'd think it'd be easy
To be a housewife these days
Cleaning five rooms in a certain way
But not when you don't get any pay

You'd think it'd be easy
To write one poem a week
Creativity would never be bleak
Or suffer a terribly dry streak

You'd think it'd be easy
To be a loving and caring wife
And not cause hubby too much strife
All we both want is an easy life

You'd think, you think
I bleed and it's ink
I see words when I dream
And new books clamour
Write me, shape me, make me
Cast me out with wild abandon
Inhale inspiration and creative nuss
Never stopping
Never breathing
Never
Ever
Be

You'd think it'd be easy
Being me
