Laziness

I doubt anyone can beat me in this

Thankgod laziness is quality and, not a second name,
or else I would be called Ms. Bhavna w.t.f. Lazy Bones.

Sometimes I feel multiple personalities residing in my body.
But all of them are so lazy, they seldom come out.

My laziness is so popular, that people give me awards,
just for getting up from the couch.

I am now waiting for the Guinness people to record my name.
When they’d come to know that I got up from bed just to write this article.

Folks! Make sure you keep checking newspapers for my picture.
A Rustic Mind (Manali Desai) will be sending my picture to the Guinness people.

I am obviously too lazy for that, by now you all can see.

Thank you very much A Rustic Mind (Manali Desai) for tagging me for this prompt. It truly was a home-calling thing for me. Now be a sweetheart and send this picture of me so I can create a new world-record for laziness.
