Grave Robbery
Someone stole my hands
Thought I could draw with my new-found clover but,
It feels like I can't
It'll blow over.
Someone stole my eyes
I would watch TV with my new-found clover but,
Nothing lies in front of me, but me
I'll wait for this news to get older.
Someone stole my legs
I can't get up to get my new-found clover
Best, I can sleep in my bed
To past October.
Someone stole my clover
It was bound to be
The world is getting colder
Will it be retrieved? We'll see, hopefully.
About this poem
I wrote this poem in my diary to make fun of my laziness recently and also to hopefully motivate me again like my Palindrome poem. This is kind of about how awful things usually get for me the farther it goes into winter.
