Styrofoam

Superman's demise is his kryptonite
With the ability to weaken and destroy 
But a worse fate exists in this fight 
With a greater ability to totally annoy

I'm referring to a whitish nightmare 
Often used to package boxes in care
The noise is such a wonderful scare 
Loud screeching please don't dare 

The very thought puts me into fright
Though masses eat off it in delight
Terrifying noises with no end in sight
Brought too close it will cause a fight 

Eliminate this plague I beg you please
It's no more than a screechy disease 
Meant to totally annoy in many degrees 
My noisy kryptonite for everyone to see

Styrofoam oh do I utterly loathe thee 
I wish the entire world would also agree 
Horrible noise bringing me to my knees
From you I really want to completely flee
