I am... Ma I


Not what it seems

A two headed coin

Laying in your palm,

Heads up or Heads down?

To you or your palm?

 

Not Fear-less but a

Fear-Bus

Carrying others pain,

Large and Bright driving threw a storm

People ride daily, but never feel the rain.

 

Who am I… An athlete?

         A Suit

Tailored to fit by people who do it all the time,

A costume to wear on October 30, and the weeks prior.

But I am a person with ambition.

 

A two headed coin can be flipped many times,

Passengers can ride many times,

A suit can be put on many times,

But they never see eye to eye.

A coin with 4, a bus with many, and behind a suit who knows,

For I am… Ma I.
