The rat and the macaroni

A poem

By Morgan KiserPublished 7 months ago 1 min read

I love pasta

I love farfalle and penne

but the one I like the most is macaroni.

Macaroni has been in my life for a short time

and I don't understand why no one likes macaroni.

but there is one thing that likes macaroni,

And that would be the rat.

Once you put cheese in the rat comes.

The rat steals your happiness and ruins everything.

Why is the rat here?

Where did the rat come from?

Where is the exterminator?

Make this rat leave.

It makes me sad that my macaroni has to be with this rat

The rat is so unwanted but no one says a thing.

The rat isn't seen as a rat though,

The rat disguises itself by dressing as pasta

Even though I'm not a pasta, I still see the rat.

sad poetry
