Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Alienation

Abandoned as a baby, I

Was raised by the state and then went

To a junior college to try

Being a poetry student.

Worked at the county morgue part time,

Dealt with people better who died.

Expelled from school writing bad rhyme.

Kind of a boring life I led.

The years went by with little change.

I preferred to be on my own.

Everyone thought I was strange.

I was pretty much left alone.

My life story - who would play me?

Time to return to Earth, E.T.!
