Back Up, Look Out

A whiner tried to live with me.
A pouter tried to live with me.
Drama queen tried to live with me.

I could not do it.
I would not do it.
I completely and utterly should not do it.

I’m not the type who rants and raves.
I’m not the type who gives or caves.
I’m the one who hates high drama.
I’ll be glad to send you packing back to your mama.

Cannot put up with fuss and kick.
Or those who pretend to be sick.
So stay away, back up, look out.
I do not put up with stomping, or people who pout.
