"I was waiting to get my bloodwork done and happened to overhear this conversation. I took some liberties with it for poetic flair, but the gist remains intact."

Complaints About a Squatter

She shouldn't even be there

She doesn't care

She's only there for the money

Don't laugh this isn't funny

+++++

She doesn't help with anything

All she wants is the furniture and the rings

She thinks that she's entitled

But she's just living in denial

+++++

She won't help with the bills

She's always on the town looking for cheap thrills

She spends money like it's a joke

I wouldn't be surprised if she's broke

+++++

I know she’s his daughter

But let’s face it she’s a squatter

+++++

They just called my name

I gotta go

Love you sweetheart

Tell the kids I say hello

+++++

This poem is for sleepy drafts Sleepy Mission...

With Love, RHC ❤️
