It has come to my attention

My brain has no retention!

Of how to do this

Or how to do that

It simply falls...kersplat!

Now, to open up a cardboard box

You'd think there'd be no pox

But, Honey, let me tell you true

I've cussed my letters blue!

I tried to open a Bean-O

You know the ones...no blow?

It was just a small container

The lid was white as snow

But hinged as tight as ticks on dogs

It left me in a fog!

By now, screwdriver found its way

A gouging I did play

Until the lid flew in the floor

It was destined for the store!

"Whew," I say. "I think it's good."

Till one more blasted hood

Stared at me...the silver flap

Glued down like leather strap.

I jerked and pulled, it would not give

My anger it did rev

Until an ice-pick

I did spy...yep, it surely did the trick.

But no, above the tiny pills

Lay another thrill!

"Hello," I say, "its cotton balls."

"What more do I befall?"

Gouging with my fingernails

My hands began to flail.

Pulling fiber threads in strips

My anger, it did slip!

Now, I don't know if I want this stuff

It made me, oh, so gruff

But I can't put it back in style

The way that it was found.

Now, look what it did to me

I just stomped it on the ground!
