Tantrum

A melodramatic loop poem about being home alone. Writer's Cramp entry.

How can they leave
Leave me alone
Alone in a home
Home on my own

Could it get any worse
This predicament I’m in
In all by my lonesome
Lonesome as sin

Soon I’ll make them pay
Pay so very dearly
Dearly for abandoning me
Me who they’ll soon see clearly

Parents are awful
Awful and dumb
Dumb stupid date night
Night that makes me so glum
