I'd like to think,
That I'm an honored member,
Of the elite poetry society.
Though I know,
I'm a long way from that,
But make sure you save me a seat,
Because no matter what, I'm coming up.
I do declare my work is the bee's knees. Though that's just me being brash.
I                                                                ­                                       Up
Used                                                          ­                                  Me
       To                                                               ­                 Picked
          Live                           ­                                         And
                On  ­                                                   Around
                   One                                        Came
                         Big                               You

I never struggled with my thoughts,
I understand I think this way because that's the thinker I got.

The only problem in my thinking,
Is the fact you don't understand my thoughts,
That's still not my fault.
The plight of many elaborate thinkers is the fact not everybody can think on their level.
When I was young,
My parents kept me locked at home,
For I was a terror in the streets.
I found a peaceful way of life
Joy to astronomers!
Tonight is the planetary parade,
A gallant march throughout the sky!
Each planet exposed to the naked eye,
Except for Uranus and Venus!
I know where I'll be looking tonight.
Mortality is a beautiful thing,
This one life we've got,
This one chance to live it big.
You've got one shot, make it impactful.
If the world won't make space for you,
You've just gotta carve it yourself.

After all, if no one built themselves a house,
None of us would have a roof over our heads.
We all have a spot somewhere.
The difference between the 'Big Men,'
And I is I'm willing to be comedic relief,
Because I know we really need it.
If you can laugh at yourself you have lots of room to gather respect.
I write despairingly,
My dismantled body staring at me,
Boy I should've read the instructions,
Before assembling this shed.
Why do instructions have to be so confusing though.
