Gran talks about creepers.
Any kind of bugs passing through the window.
Like Eddie Veeder stoned.
Memories of watching 'Creepy Crawlies' as a kid.
All my classmates watched Neighbours.
I was always the square peg in the round hole.
Where do I fit in?
Gran demands I close the window during the Summer.
Creepers scare the bejaysus out of her.
My room feels like a Sauna.
I need to shower twice to keep myself from stinking.
At least we have no rat problem.
Even without a cat in the house.
Ali Campbell found one in his kitchen.
All of twenty-nine years ago.
Stuffed my face with food today.
My Brother is the one exercising.
I'm stewing in my own juice here.
But I got out of myself for a couple of hours.
Reaching out to a bloke from New Zealand.
Isn't technology wonderful?
I'm now dealing with the creepers.
They enjoy their handful of days on this earth.
I should stop moping about then.
Life's too short.

I think you would fit very well with writting essays too, but you maybe already do this as well? There is a very nice story in this poem, I even think it could have been written longer too. ;-) :-)

I am entering it in a poetry competition which has a deadline of Midnight Tonight. :)
