Hate That Cat

Well, you see
today I finished a book
called Hate that Cat
and if you've ever read
that book
then you would have had
to read another one
but I don't remember
what the name is.

I just remember
it was about a
boy
and about his
dog
and all about
poetry
and how much he
liked it.
And I thought
Why are there
rules?
To poetry?

I mean
my teacher
Ms. Evan
would not like
this post.
Because it has
puntuation
and also I havn't
capitalized
every first word
in a line.

And she would say
Sara
what kind of poem
is this?
and I would say
I don't know
I just started writing
and this is what
came out
but it has to
do with this book
called Hate That Cat
which is accually quite
good
even though it's not my lexile.

And she would give me
zero points
because I put puncutation
and I didn't do
capitalization
the way I'm supposed to

I mean
who came up with
all these rules
that we have to follow?
Why
do we have to have
two or more
similies
in every poem
it just doesn't
make
sence.

To me.

But i'm not going
to tell her that
because
she's my teacher
and she controls
my future
and stuff.

I wonder
if i'll ever remember
what the title of
the first book was
even though
it doesn't say it's a
sequel
it's kind of
ob
