Smoke Alarms

Smoke alarms
in my house.
Why oh why
do you go off?
Nothings burning.
My mom ain't cooking.
Theres no reason
for you to beep.

Your piercing noise
hurts my ears.
Your screeching sound
drives me nuts.
I can't survive like this
much longer.
You need to leave my life
or else.

My dad stands underneath your box.
Fanning the air
to stop your cry.
We beg of you
please shut your mouth.
Before we run
and flee the land.

Now you've stopped
your silly song.
No more screaming
your annoying tune.
You've done your job
all too wrong.
Goodbye forever.
See ya later.

It might need replacing. Sometimes they go off to alert you the battery is running out or filter (detector part) is not working.

Also good poem 🔥
