Home Sweet Home
written

I wished and I prayed,
for my own place to stay.
I have gotten my way,
but there is a price I
must pay.
I wrote a list just yesterday,
of all the things that
are in decay.
There are holes in the floor,
need to replace the back
door,
wait now there's more.
I found a dead rat under
the sink,
(It's hard to get rid of
that stink)
I guess it had done bit
through the cord,
cause the stove, it don't
work no more.
If i don't get rid of these
fleas,
I'll probably catch some
disease.
My tv's on the blink,
and my roof, it has leaks.
Mice and snakes and millipedes
all live in the house with
me.
And this one last addition
there is now a tree in
my kitchen.
It fell last night during
the storm,
(I'm just glad that I wasn't
home.)
I'll throw it into the
mix,
of the things left to fix.
You may say my house is
falling down,
but I will boldly stand
my ground.
It will be a while before
i roam,
for now this is my Home
Sweet Home.
