The Future

The Future

A Poem by Dressed in Poetry
"

An argument/haiku war. I am in italics, my boyfriend is in bold.

"

Screaming all the time

Because they don’t get their way

I despise children

 

Burping and pooping

Never getting any rest

I want to punch them

 

The parents are worse

Letting them do all they want,

Lifting no fingers.

 

Though I loathe them,

I think that one day I will

Have some of my own.

 

You think that, but know:

I will not have a baby

Inside me, ever.

 

Baby, I want you

To know that I don’t want one.

I want three hundred.

 

It is our duty

To populate the whole world

With hot geniuses.

 

I must admit that

Your arguments are very

Persuasive, but no.

 

No matter what you

Say, one day you will spawn my

Army of children.

 

I will make a deal.

If I get a library,

You will get your kids.

 

Deal deal deal deal deal,

Deal deal deal deal deal deal deal,

Deal deal deal deal deal!

Vraiment bien ecrit ce poeme. Je suis desole pour les accents, clavier anglais. Je l'ai meme trouve un peu drole, cyniquet et tres honnete. Le choix des mots est tres bien reussi. Bravo.
