Quoth the Blogger, "Hatesitmore!"


Once upon a midnight dreary, while I slept half-naked and weary,
Over many a carbo-loaded dinner I ate just until,
While I laid there, probably snoring, since TV that night was hella boring,
And then I heard this awful screeching, screening out my window sill,
"Tis some cats," I thought, "Humping outside my window sill,
They bang all day, yet want more still.

The the noise grew more distinct and telling,
By the break of dawn, I believed it more,
For I had heard it yesterday at a different hour,
It was a crow, perched high above once more,
A bird of black, irritating as before,
Quoth the blogger, "Hatesitmore!"

While I could not sleep with this awful yapping,
But his screeching continued, forevermore,
I devised a plan to engage his silence,
So that my ears could be relieved of sore,
To my balcony I retreated swiftly,
Grabbed some ice, I grabbed it tightly,
I tossed it at the bird, "Hatesitmore!"

And the crow, quickly puzzled, quickly fleeing, quickly fleeing,
From the lines outside my window sill, like the Raven of Poe's lore,
I crept back to sleep, eyes are heavy,
Wanting sleep more than ever before,
Thankful my ice worked on that bird from the lore,
Quoth the blogger, "Hatesitmore!"

Between the brilliance of Tregg's poem and this hilarious pic of Raven Simone...I loves it.
