Mischief

In a small town far away
A gargantuan building there it lay
Settled on a colossal mass of land
Nowhere near to being grand

Filled with children oh childrens’ galore
On the south side of the shore
An orphanage filled with strays
Living a confused life like in a maze

But there was one boy who stood out of the crowd
A mischievous one but very proud
No sign of sadness was shown on his face
His dream though was to go into outer space
To leave these monstrous humans of the Earth
Who thought he had no worth
