I wrote this for the Halloween party I had last night where we swapped spooky stories and Halloween jokes. I wanted to create verse that scans perfectly because I get annoyed with all verse that doesn’t! Also, this poem expresses the scariest part of life I can think of.
Don’t Look in the Mirror
Our parents make us so annoyed
We vow to grow up and avoid
Stupidity we saw them do.
We know our choices will be new.
But everyone who’s seen the face
Of their own parent can’t erase
The evidence that slowly shows
Dysfunction doesn’t die, but grows.
