Joshua Seigal  

Don't Get Me Started

​

 

When people chew their food too loud

When you look outside and see the clouds

When people fuss and fight in crowds —

Don’t even get me started.

 

When biscuits fall in cups of tea

When mum goes on a cleaning spree

Whenever teachers pick on me —

Don’t even get me started.

 

Waiting in an airport queue

When chocolate melts and turns to goo

No toilet paper in the loo —

Don’t even get me started.

 

Wi-Fi signals that get lost

Summer sun that turns to frost

Poems with irregular rhyme schemes —

Don’t even get me started!
