Analysis of I CLEANED MY HOUSE TODAY
Kathleen Ann Kovacs 1949 (Lorain, Ohio)
I dusted off my soul
polished my heart
vacuumed my brain
opened the windows of my thoughts
threw out long expired garbage
removed all boundaries from my spiritual life
then looked into my shiny mirror and said,
"Thank you God"
