If You Were Organized

If you were organized, you would have guessed
the closest are the favorites, realized
when I said “help yourself,” not to my best!
If you were organized…

You grabbed the first you found. I was surprised.
If I were you I’d choose among the rest.
My stuff is ordered, first-to-lesser-prized.

A drawer of socks is like a sorting test.
A cluttered workspace, food that’s crystallized
on dirty plates, are symptoms soon addressed,
if you were organized.
