What could go wrong?
You got up late. I need to state
That's why you made everybody wait.
When you're tired, mistakes don't take long.
I now know I'm not the only one at fault
We all make ypos. When did I go to bed?
Today someone else has made a worse mistake
Sent us white wine, instead of the ordered red.
I sang out of tune, a well known song.
It was karaoke. I got all the words wrong.
After all of my hype - oh
The first page of my book has a typo!
'Can somebody help me?
And not charge a fee?'
'Yes, I can help you -
If you can help me
Your poem's sweet, short, succinct
But it would be neater
If it had less predictable rhyme
And found missing metre.
'Why are you so rude?
There must be something good.
You're supposed to encourage
Not discourage!'
'Now you've offended me
I helped and got no thanks
I give you feedback
But gain nothing in the bank
'If you didn't want help
Completing this task
You should not get offended
Or, you shouldn't ask.'
-ends.
