What I want to beA Poem by QuinnAstronaut, fierce knight Billionaire, famous spy Prime minister, movie star We would dream into the night Big dreams Big plans “What I want to be” Someone with many fans Science guy, army general Entrepreneur, basic spy Mp, TV star Dreams reducing, can’t deny Smaller dreams Smaller plans “What I want to be” Someone with a few fans Science teacher, private Manager, assistant guy Local council, backing crew Smaller as years go by Little dream Little plan “What I want to be” Someone who can pay the tax man Shop assistant, office worker Coffee man, printer guy Village hall, audience member Nothing more, why? No dream No plan “What I have to be” Here comes the fun ban I looked back On my dreams at six Ambitions and goals Massive mix But not any more All the doors are now shut I’ve done what adults call “Growing up” against my gut
