To Do Less

It only takes 5 minutes
Or less most of the time

To clean the room
Fold laundry
Vacuum

Or even  learn a new
Word everyday

Five minutes or less
To do ten push-ups or sit-ups
Or run around the block

Read a chapter
Write in the journal
Wipe down the table

But when it comes to
Doing any manual labor
Or mental exercise

Five minutes is just too much
Too long of a time
To expend the energy

For too many people
Rich or poor
Lazy or not

Rather opting to seat
For hours watching
TV or a movie

Constantly seeking
To do less
And less work
