Ill at ease

Vacuum your curtains and wipe your window panes with soap and a newspaper.
Pick up your clothes and fold them; place them in neat even piles. Place them in the cupboard.
Repeat till all the clothes are inside the cupboard.
Change your bedcovers, dust your table.
Arrange your toiletries in increasing order of height.
Rearrange your books so that they follow some kind of a pattern. Alphabetically by name, or by name of author.
Vacuum the rest of the room. Dust the walls. Even behind the big clock.
Take it all in; go sit elsewhere because you can't think with all this neatness staring back at you.
