Stupid Stinky Gerbil

I am a beautiful and wonderful cat, No other animal compares to me. Everyone in my house knows that. It’s so clear to see. Other animals wish they were me. I am the queen of this kingdom And I vanquish all my foes, The rodents that used to trespass my domain Are all dead and gone, as everyone knows. And now what I say goes. I get all the attention I get all the catnip and treats I get all the pets and scratches I get all the best spots on cozy seats. I get everything, my life’s complete. But one day, while I dream away Laying in a warm sun spot An enemy invades my kingdom. I wake up and see what the humans brought. I am disgusted by what they bought. The humans call it an “adorable gerbil.” But it’s obviously a rodent, can’t you see? Rodents are our sworn enemy. What is this insanity? What have you humans done to me? Now those silly children who used to serve me Try playing Wordle with the stupid gerbil. Those children would be better off Playing Wordle with a silly turtle Not a stupid...

Perhaps I’m an Alien


Sometimes I feel like a weirdo

Everywhere I go.

I wonder about social norms

Like when should I say hello


Or when should I ignore someone

And keep going on my way?

Or how do I end a conversation

Before walking away?


If I say hello and no one hears,

That is a little awkward for me.

If I don’t say hello and the other person does

That makes me worry.


What if the other person thinks

That I think poorly of them

Because instead of saying hello

I decided to ignore them?


When someone says “Thank you,”

What should I say?

Do I say, “No problem,” 

Or “My pleasure, have a good day?”


I think the latter is the most pleasant

But when I say “No problem,” by accident

I think, “Now they think I was annoyed by them

And that their presence was inconvenient.”


Perhaps I am an alien

Who somehow got left behind

By the other aliens, and as a result 

I’m struggling with the customs of mankind.


I’d like to think I’m a fairy

Forced to live amongst the human race.

But I’m most likely a silly, lost alien

Who needs to get back to outer space.
