This is a poem you should skip.

Like pass this page and just dip.

Go read something cooler.

Like a book about Ferris Bueller.

.

Omg why are you still here?

Seriously, just go grab a beer.

Getting drunk is pretty fun.

So is eating lots of meat buns.

.

Wow, you haven’t left yet.

I’m glad I didn’t make that bet.

This poem is going nowhere.

So go outside and grab some air.

.

Ahhhhh, still reading I see?

Well congrats 4 passing stanza #3!

However, I pity your dedication.

This is why you’ll never get a vacation.

.

Sticking it out to the end huh?

Guess my insult didn’t hurt ya?

I’m sorry if that was a little mean.

Then again you’re not that really keen.

.

Holy crap! Why didn’t you leave?

Are you some kind of a sexual fiend?

Do you like this verbal abuse?

Perhaps I should just tie you a noose?

.

That was pretty dark you know.

Perhaps you should read this on the go.

Don’t worry this poem is about to end.

So you can just stop calling your friend.

.

You know, perseverance is a bitch.

Some would say like a murderer’s itch.

A little too specific you think?

Well, maybe you should turn around

.

and I’ll turn you all bloody and pink.
