The Poet in Me

The poet in Me

What defines "Me"?

Is it my name?

You say it right, or you say it wrong.

Choices

Potato or potato

Tomato or tomato

Or you make up your own way all together

I don't want to be called Aaliah, I'm Ali

It's not a potato, it's a root fruit

It's not a tomato, it's a sunberry

Who's to say I'm wrong?

It's poetry

It's my choice

It's the poet in me.
