It's Not My Fault!
by Megan C.
copyright 05-31-2007


Age Rating: 4 to 127

 
It's not my fault
I had fifty homework assignments to do.
It's not my fault
My stuff was piled up so high that I couldn't open the door to my room.
It's not my fault
My room flooded, and I can't swim.
It's not my fault
The aliens said that if I cleaned my room, they'd come and eat my cat.
It's not my fault
My room turned to solid cheese and the mutant lab mice came and ate all of my furniture!
It's not my fault
My cat got tired of me whining, “It's not my fault!” and blew up my room!
I can't clean it now.
Can I wait 'till it grows back?

I don't think it'll be growing back soon. I hope. Everyone knows the aliens are taking out our educational system. I like how it starts out realistic then gets more far-fetched.

This is so funny and you wrote it in ten minutes. I am so glad our English teacher had us do so many funny poems. That project we did was so much fun.

This poem is hilarious. It reminds me of some of the excuses I gave my mother when I didn't want to clean my room when I was younger.

C= Nice excuses to not clean your room or turn in a paper. xD I liked it seeing as how I HATE cleaning my room.
I loved it, I think I might favorite it.
No problems that I can see.
Read some of my poetry?
Pretty please?

Totally amusing heh, heh, heh.
It put a great big smile on my face and made my day. My friend bought me a t shirt with a great big fuzz ball on the front captioned "Mr. Messy".


Great work, keep them coming,

I had to write this for a school assignment(whew! I finally spelled that right!). Little did I know how much fun it would be! So, I liked it, and my teacher adored it(she knows about my being on PnP), and she said that I should put it on. Obviously, I did. And I'm glad!

Hahahahaha! How amusing! I can relate to the experience of a messy room quite well. Even though I am now in college, it is still a bit of a mess. But one should have seen it when I was younger... books and papers everywhere, not to mention an occasional article of clothing like socks or shorts.

Leigh made the only real criticism of this otherwise solid work. That one mistake is only a minor slip in grammar and easily remedied, so nothing to worry too much about. Anyone that is not a "neat freak" can relate to this work's theme of the room that is always messy and find humor in the constant excuses the narrator gives for not cleaning their room. Aliens, mutant lab rats, and a cat that blows your room up? Those excuses are priceless, considering that I have made up some larks involving federal agents hiding listening devices in the book piles (it's a long, goofy story...) and that the mess of books and papers was healthy to live in.

Overall a good job. It brought back memories of my childhood and early teenage years. Maybe I should clean my room now... or maybe not. Now I don't have to make excuses... all I have to say is that I'm simply too lazy to do it today! Good work and thanks for bringing back the memories!

Very good poem! Very funny too. A good write. I can relate. My parents sometimes aske me "Is there a dresser in this room or just a pile of cloths?" Or, "How many pounds of cheese are you growing with those old glasses of milk?" lol
Keep up the god work.

This is absolutely beautiful, and so flawlessly written I wouldn't change a thing! When I was a kid I didn't have much, so my room was easy to keep clean. Now, as an adult, well, things just seem to keep creeping into my room so that now and then I have to go on "Neat Frenzy". Which lasts about a week and then it's back to that "lived-in" look. Great write and a great read. Loved it.

This is a cute poem =]
I can relate to it so much! People can't even go in my room because it's so gross =P Though I'm ALWAYS told to clean it, I keep putting it off because of COURSE I'm a procrastinator too.
Go figure =P

But, anyway, I like how you repeat the line "It's not my fault"!

Nice job!
-Haley R.
