If You Must

I can read, I can write
I can breed, proven plight
Nurse my greed, crease infold
Is it me, or my ego …

Write some words, make them rhyme
Thesis or story line
Set the mood, something new
Is it me, or my attitude …

Ahhhhh…!

If you want
to put off
an image

The extremes (x2)

Act it out
Practicing
Perfecting
Pressuring

Onto me (x3)

I will wade in the fire
To explain your asylum
Idle times, analyzing
We’ll compare all our sightings
You must

I speak
to hear
my voice

I can read, I can write
I can breed, proven plight
Nurse my greed, crease infold
Is it me, or my ego …

Write some words, make them rhyme
Thesis or story line
Set the mood, something new
Is it me, or my attitude …

If you want
to put off
an image

The extremes (x2)

Act it out
Practicing
Perfecting
Pressuring

Onto me (x7)
