One night after dinner My mom gave the orders For me and my sister To go to the border What border we asked She did not reply My dad sat there quietly And didn’t ask why Mom simply stated “Put your dishes in the washer, And your sister, too.” But to us this was a shocker We looked at each other And then at our dad He was laughing hysterically Gone completely mad! He mocked my mother And pictured in his mind Me in the dishwasher! Boy I was in a bind So down at the border Of who knows where My family was determined To get me there Where you ask? Oh you must not have forgotten The dishwasher of course! Isn’t that rotten? btw this is based on a true experience...although they did NOT try to even fit me into the dishwasher  |

This was a bit different haha.... Weird, but nice.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Good job on this. It was interesting, to say the least  Keep posting.--Marie I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am. |

Heyyy.. hold on here. I'm the resident crack-headed poetry writer.. Just kiddin'. Twas.. different. Personally, my parents never tried to stuff ME into the dishwasher.. No.. it was always the fridge.. "I don't want to achieve immortality through my work . . . I want to achieve it through not dying." -Woody Allen |
