Write your accounts they say
it is a typical way
a record of what you spend
a very good method to depend on
all that is well in spirit
really it gives no respite
a day you forget to write
your conscience kills you not slight
not only, you fear yourself
also, you are scary of the other self
might be your husband at home
who questions you and diffuse your calm
may be your senior in workplace
who makes you feel out of place
Well, this record of what you do
the expenses at home would be few
you know what to buy and what not
there need not be any other way out
writing what you spend and tallying it
time consuming and unnecessary in a bit
the span of life being short
with the survival being fought
an accounting for business is a fit.
but for the house it is unfit
this be my opinion very clear
you may not like it my dear.

A Miserable Miser.
A man I know is a 
miser
writing accounts in a one side paper
acts like a preacher
telling things baseless in a taper.
His handwriting lies down on the paper
small and meagre to see really
but he keeps writing on every paper
that is available without fee cheaply.
He wears a dress for three days continuously
smelly and crushed all the way
It is simplicity he proudly says voluntarily
remaining partly clad most of the day
He lives on other people’s wealth comfortably
posing to manage them with skill cleverly
He eats nothing that gives health invariably
but raises and charges a fat bill absolutely
He has lived so far and so long
doing nothing in style
yet men like him do live in wrong
living a life in guile
