[Hey everybody, I’ve been nominated by IMadeUpThisFictionalBlogger@Really.com to take the Jasmine Challenge! The rules are pretty simple: write way-too much poetry, and clutter up everybody’s reader on weekends and some weekdays. I’m so excited I was nominated! I’d like to thank members of the academy for making this possible; my mom and dad; my choreographer; and the girl who put extra banana peppers on my sandwich at Jimmy John’s last Tuesday. You all are the best!]
In real life, I am really dull.
I even bore myself:
A storage chest of trivia
And wide as a bookshelf.
I don’t use mirrors most the time;
I hate the way I look —
I cannot fix a broken thing,
Nor can I paint or cook.
If your grandad had been a walrus,
That’s your basic me —
It’s fiction writing I would do,
But get reality —
And really, I am just some dude
Among the crowd of faces,
The drop within the ocean, who
Once gone, leaves no real traces –
So I make up awards and write.
Write poems, just like this one:
To live in surreality –
It’s now
My life’s
Real mission
