Poetry Challenge- Psuedo Science

So, Micheal challenged me to increase my output  in poetry, and also to share that un-perfected output with the world. The ideal is to write within a limited time frame with the knowledge of public consumption.
In the end, I'll be writing every few days and posting here.
Here is today's work.

Pseudo Science

Tea tree oil got in my sights
I use you on Thursday, but not on Wednesday
I didn't plan on you today.
Put your needs in their place.
Come back next time
when outrage has been penciled in.

And when you come to know yourself
As I have always thought you should be
you'll be over your childish angst
Thursday's the place to be.

Antiseptic in my eyes
It's nature's natural way.
Of giving you the better
for what you have to say

And when you know yourself
As I have always thought you to be
You'll find as I have to,
Thursday's the place to be.
Tea tree oil in my sights
planted in my brain
Antiseptic in my eyes
for knowing better ways

For when you come to know yourself
Up on that road ahead
It seems you'll never know yourself
Until the day you're dead.

I'll anesthetize your eyes, but sterile they will be
I have the planner, and only I can see

Thursday's the place to be

Come back tomorrow, I'll pencil you in.
