The Real Trickster

I thought I'd play a trick 
on my kid sister Brooke,
she said that it was sick
and stuck me up on this hook - 
that's why I have such a sad look.

My trick was funny , so I thought - 
I ate her dish of ice cream,
but Brooke got mad and said "I could rot,"
it was then I let out a scream...
Brooke just looked up laughing - boy, is she mean!
