Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Kind Less

A Random Acts of Kindness Club
Was started up at my high school.
Mom encouraged me not to snub
Joining it, since it would be cool
To list it when applying for
Colleges. So I gave in and
My first act took me to the door
Of one who did not understand
That I would rake her leaves for free.
She said that I was just a crook,
And then she called the cops on me.
I was lucky they did not book.

I told Mom that it undermined
My college hopes by being kind.
