Ode to a Homeless Guy

i wrote this in honor of my brothers roommate...and because i was bored in class.

Ode to a Homeless Guy
a poem by Q

Let us sing a song of praises
for the boy who experiences the phases
of deep and wondering comicals
of the amazing dorm life chronicles

the year launched so pleasantly
boys in an apartment, there were three
and so they began in anticipation
a year of friendship and celebration

then one day boy three announced
he was moving out, his residence renounced
"Im going away," he proclaimed
and all of his possessions he came to claim

"You are homeless now," crowed the others
"but since we consider ourselves your brothers
we offer you shelter here on our couch
though threadbare, improved from sleeping on the floor, ouch!"

so with bravery the third boy went
to the couch and common room that he had been lent
and made camp there in the living room
and made his exit with a flourish and a boom

His pan hangs in the fire extinguishers place
on the couch, people begin to familiarize his face
and dubbed he was 'the Homeless Guy'
and there he stayed as the year passed by

And there forever a plaque will hang
where a boy made a statement with a bang
and that Homeless Guy still resides
and over all the Homeless of the dorm does he regally preside


and that ladies and gentlemen in the poem about the homeless guy in my brothers apartment in lander. he really did move out of their room and into the living room. strange guy, that one. well thats all for tonight folks. hasta la vista.
