WHAT AM I ANGRY ABOUT?
It is not
The stagnating piss
Under the seat that I cleaned up
Nor is it the drawer that sticks
From all of the estranged
Tupperware lids
No
(Though that can be
Infuriating at times)
It is not your mother
Busted feeding you sugar
Late at night
(Maybe it should be
But I didn't even know about that)
What am I angry about?
I have no idea
The stagnating piss
Under the seat that I cleaned up
Nor is it the drawer that sticks
From all of the estranged
Tupperware lids
No
(Though that can be
Infuriating at times)
It is not your mother
Busted feeding you sugar
Late at night
(Maybe it should be
But I didn't even know about that)
What am I angry about?
I have no idea

I like this, even though I am not a parent...but I can relate to the little annoyances mentioned in here.
Good observation of everyday bullshit.

I understand this. My littles aren’t little anymore, but I have days when the irritations send me to my own room for a time out!

I've felt like that all day...can't put my finger on it...must be something in the air?
