As I Am

A SPORADIC LIFE
IS WHAT I LIVE
ALL OR NOTHING
THAT'S WHAT I GIVE

CAN I BE SUAVE
BUT NOT PROFOUND
AT THE SAME TIME
NOT TO MAKE A SOUND

THE AVARICE IS GREAT
A FEW MORE TIMES
A FEW MORE POEMS
AS IF I COULD KEEP THEM MINE

PEOPLE ARE NOT SURE
ABOUT MY BELLIGERENT WAYS
CAN THEY BE CONTAINED
AS I GROW TO AN OLD AGE

A METAMORPHOSIS OCCURS
FROM A BABY TO A MAN
MY KNOWLEDGE AND POWER GROWS
TO A HUMAN THAT CAN

WHEN I LEARNED TO WALK
I LEARNED TO FALL
TEACHING ME TO SPEAK
GAVE ME THE POWER TO CALL

SO MANY SKILLS
ON WHICH LIFE IS FORMED
WHAT A GREAT FORMATION
WAS OR IS IT DONE WRONG?
