I shook my pen until I found,
black ink on my face and all around.
Ink dripping down my nose and cheek,
I didn't know my pen had a leak.

My t's not crossed, no dotted i's
my paper in distress it lies,
missing the lines and dots,
covered in black inky spots.

I match my paper and like an ink well,
I'm splotched with ink and I smell,
that bland inky stench,
because the pen decided to drench.

Me from head to toe,
wreaking of ink wherever I go.
