My Best Poem



I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I AM DOING
      ~~~~~~
BUT I THINK I AM TRYING MY BEST
      ~~~~~~
YOU SEE A WORM ATE PART OF MY BRAIN
      ~~~~~~
SO I DO NOT REMEMBER THE REST?

    I love the simplicity of this. It made me laugh, and then it made me think, but mostly it was fun to read. Amazing job!
