I Personally Know a Monster

*Please note: This poem was written for MY brother this Christmas. He is twelve w/braces. He annoys me twenty-four seven! And sometimes I can’t even sleep! Especially when he snores and claims in the morning that he didn’t make a peep! He is filthy, disgusting, and appalling! Picking food out of his mouth after meals! Often I think he is crazy! I mean c’mon... he doesn’t even walk on his heels! But no matter how strange he is, Nasty and smelling like scat, I've got to put up with his vexation because he’s my brother and I kinda have to love him for that.

Tape that snore and if he doesn't believe ,film him and tape him at the same time. You could always write another poem on him not believing you.

Thanks! I just have to say that this poem was kinda personal so it wouldn't really work for any other person except him. And we are twins.
