Procrastinate

I swear I'll finish at some point soon.
It's just a bother now. I promise you
That whether by the twinkling of the moon
Or underneath the sun, I will not do
What I have done before: procrastinate,
Put off and then excusing my putting off,
Be hesitant and tardy, stop and wait,
And, being questioned, with a little scoff
Demean my questioner. I will endeavour
To finish, and, when I have reached my goal,
To take it as a model to persever
And not allow my late-arriving soul
To dawdle any longer. Do not laugh;
I'm really almost done. Well, OK, half.
