You wont believe what happened today the chip pan lid simply rolled away I went to take it off the pot Ouch I shouted, the darn things hot I let it go, it hit the floor and rolled away towards the door I made a grab, which made it turn towards the fridge, I never learn The gap twixt fridge and wall so small it took with ease, no trouble at all It rolled behind, Oh what disaster jammed itself behind the caster Now there it sits, gathering dust and there it stays, my tempers bust A major job to get it out but not today is what I shout So the chip pan sits and splatters oil Which simply makes my temper boil The cooker to clean, the fridge to pull out this is real life, there is no doubt One simple job has now made work I know behind the fridge does lurk the dust of days and weeks gone by to clean up will my patience try An early start tomorrow morning I tell the family, with this warning Keep out the way, whilst dust I rid Just to retrieve that chip pan lid.

It happened to me. Truly.
