Power Poetry

by Anthony D. 

I rise in the morning to get my day started

I'm over 40 but I still get carded

My head leaves my pillow now it's dearly departed

On with my day,  my plan which is crazy-retarded

I look at my obstacles,  things & people stand in my way

I overtake them all in one day

I see my boy on the street and I wave and say "Hay!"

At the end of my day I write Power Poetry!

The world is round, that's what they tell me

I have to travel it. One day I'll be free.  There's lots of things in this world

So many things to see.  So I got to stay busy like a honey bee.

I need this scholarship money, everything has a fee.

That's why I called this poem Power Poetry.

One day I'll be paid and grow my money tree.

Right now I writing this poem sipping on green tea.

Oh! I gotta go to bed now, cause it's one fourty three.

Yo, I wrote this rhyme quick. Who do you think it'll be? Is it him or me?  I'm going to bed now, I'll just wait and see....
