So Fake, So RealA Poem by Shadin ManningI love blue but I always where pink I’m so smart but I don’t know how to think I can be happy go lucky and love all the duckies But give your bones a chill with my malevolent kills I have a heart like a man but a mind like a woman I can be Mary Poppins or become Sir Bowman I see everything I hear and hear everything I see I sting like butterfly but socialize like a bee I keep my mind open and heart closed My body slouches but my mind is posed My reality is in black and white, without a light in sight And my dreams are in technicolor, with the sunlight so bright I was born to die and I’ll die to live I hate but take everything the universe has to give When I walk down the street, I stumble on my feet But when I'm dancing my heart out I don't miss a beat How can I eat the banana but hate the peel? How can something so fake be so real? © 2012 Shadin Manning |
