7. when I am at school I am very tired
I tripped over my Doctor
I like my cereal and my dog
I often think about being a bird
I want cupcakes right now but there are none in sight
I swim in the dirt with the talking chairs when I sleep
Running is fun when the neighbors don’t throw things at you
My pet rabbit said hello food is very good when I eat it
I am satisfied with the way the man in the closet barks at me.
Sometimes I can hear the owls screaming at my house when its dark.
I can fly so fast not even my notebook can catch me
Colors remind me of the day I had a son, his name was lemon
The books spit at me when I don’t think loud enough
But I said no its wednesday
Sonnet
9. parody
They see me mowin'
My front lawn
I know they're all thinking
I'm so White N' nerdy
Think I'm just too white n' nerdy
Think I'm just too white n' nerdy
Can't you see I'm white n' nerdy
Look at me I'm white n' nerdy!
I wanna roll with-
The gangsters
But so far they all think
I'm too white n' nerdy
Think I'm just too white n' nerdy
Think I'm just too white n' nerdy
I'm just too white n' nerdy
Really, really white n' nerdy
