These People I Call Family
June 8, 2009
These people
Come to invade my home
These people I call family
They run constantly
Around the house
Children
Naked, begging for all that is here
They keep up a fuss
Never closing their mouths
They keep a mess
Destroying everything they touch
These people
Come to invade my home
These people I call family
They stand as an obstacle
They limit the things
I could do
In my OWN house
They're constantly tattle-telling
On each other
Or someone else, for simple misconduct
When can I be free
Of
These people
That come to invade my home
These people I call family?

this one was funny in that it was so relatable (which is probably the most overused word on teenink, but, whatever, it's so true)

Oh, I can totally relate! This is a great poem though! I can feel your anger and annoyance dripping from the words! Wonderful :) 5 stars
