Look, I'm quite happy
As an introverted, sloppy,
Creative, easygoing, poor,
Overweight, insecure misfit!
I don't need your anal,
Obsessive, ultra-organized,
Critical nitpicking!
I like it in my little hole.
Except that I need you
To come when I call you
And comfort me,
Relieve my loneliness,
Laugh at my jokes,
Share a little affection.
But watch it!
Don't say the wrong thing
Or suggest my world
Is anything but perfect.
There may be a candy wrapper
On the floor. You're not allowed
To say it. Even if you trip
Over that anvil while walking
Over to kiss me, not a word!
And if it doesn't smell so good in here
To you with your supersonic nose,
This is my hole, I'll do what I want
With my time and my space!
Observe these few little rules
And we'll get along just fine!
Hey I like this Max. We all need a little space of our own, and this says it perfectly. Nice one!
This made me laugh out loud... or scream? I forget which! Thanks for putting it so wittily, Max!
