Halloween revenge

I don't trick or treat (anymore), but I can imagine some kid doing this, lol.

-----
I have TP'ed your house
and your maple tree,
so alone in your yard.

I have thrown eggs to
your lovely Porsche
because it needs protein.

I have called your phone
too many times that my fingers
have red pulsing blisters.

You need to call your plumber
but you can't, because
I have cut off your phone line.

Your windows were lonely
so I let them meet my friend,
Mr. Baseball.

I have ruined your day
but that is cheap
compared to a Milky Way
I deserved.

Jerk.

Hahaha, funny. It's an enjoyable piece, but I'm obviously not going to take it seriously. But I congratulate you on putting humor into a poem. Very cool. You might try prose...you could go further with prose, because I really don't think you need to express this in poem form. I'm not sure. Think about it!

Some minor grammatical adjustments and whatnot:
