the little things that annoy me


leaving the butter
out on the side
teaspoons
unwashed and abandoned
cellophane seals to pots and bottles removed
then discarded anywhere but the bin
dirty laundry on the kitchen floor
coats hung on the end of the banister
anything just abandoned in the hall
my dog not being able
to shut the door behind herself
after she enters a room
lights left on in the room after
you have left it
the lid left off
the toothpaste tube
pots of hummus
sold without lids
accountancy
a wet seat
being told to play it slower
half empty cups of tea discarded
and forgotten plates
not cleared
of unfinished food
tinsel
