a little sanity by my pen made me write this

i try not to keep all of
  my sanity in one location.
heavens no.
that would simply not do.
so i place a little here by
  my dresser, that i might
  ask it for guidance when
  i must get dressed in the
  morning.
no purple polka-dot ties
  if you please.
heavens no.
don’t you know, that simply
  will not do.
a bit of sanity by the
  toilet, to remind me to
  wipe.
some by the television,
  informing me when my
  bedtime has come.
a piece by the toaster for
  when i approach with
  a knife to free my
  bagel from the silver
  beast.
a little here.
a little there.
i tried once to keep it
  all in one location,
  but found that it was
  then only useful in that
  one place.
i lost it then.
only momentarily though.
found it the next day.
oh, what a night that was.
so now, i sprinkle my sanity
  liberally where i (rather
  it) feels it could serve
  me best.
it works.
heavens yes, it does.
