Hy-drangea'd Pot's Water in the Sink



Today's word is, oh what do you care?  It's Torpor (noun): Lacking in vitality or interest.  Also, lethargy or apathy.

Ok, World, be honest, 'cause I think I see what you are doing here.  Did you send this word to me as a commentary on my plogging?  Have you lost that loving feeling?  Did you even have that loving feeling in the beginning or did I just imagine it?  Well, as I stand in the front yard in curlers and a polyester nightgown shredding your custom made dress shirts, chew on this little ditty:

See the torpor of my watering regimen 
In the way the potting soil settles.
Though I hydrate the hydrangeas again
I can't restore luster to the petals.
