The one o'clock rule still applies

Which it seems you often despise

Therefore please afford me quietness

To ensure household happiness

Otherwise if you violate it more

There shall soon be declared war

For an author requires quiet reflection

Undivided focus and concentration

Free from innumerable distractions

So keep the peace and prevent war

When you need stuff from my office

By getting it out the night before ;o)

I've gotten to the point of locking the door

For incessant interruptions I abhor

Though I love you my wife forevermore

However intrusions beyond number

Is the death of any skillful author

Therefore if you want to enjoy the fruits

Of my toil, dedication, and labor

Don't stop the flow for vanity's show

Don't muddy the divine river

With meaningless fodder

Diversions and distractions

Detouring divine concentration

Hindering pure and steady motivation

Of course excuses are many

However so too shall they be

When I score a show on TV

And say you can't come with me

Because you continually hindered me

Let this not be, alter your ways immediately

Before you become the end of creativity

Shutting off the divine flow within me

I entreat you with all sincerity

As I have done so repeatedly

Tried to explain tirelessly

To no avail seemingly

For you don't pay attention

To my requests for liberation

From fruitless interruptions

Mental hiccups and intrusions

I humbly beseech you today

Asking you to bypass your pride

So you can wholeheartedly hear me

Cherish and lovingly respect me

And the wonderful gift God has given me.
