A Typical Day For Norman
By Ruairi P., Baldwinsville, NY
Missed the bus again
always seem to be late
Never find what I'm looking for
only God knows my fate
Having a hard time in school
trying to fit in
All these new rules
feels like I can't win
Stuck here at home
parents fighting
that is why I am here
once again writing
Maybe I'll write an adventure
no I like mystery
maybe travel through time
and rewrite history
Making a daring rescue
or a narrow escape
I could heal the world's wounds
with this little piece of masking tape
I could be the hero
or the villain
and maybe stop all the evil
and the horrible killing
I could imagine a world without pain
and experience only pleasure
I could explore the whole world
in search of buried treasure
I could journey into space
or sail the ocean
I could turn into a giant beast
by drinking this magic potion
I could do anything
see anything
be anything
go anywhere
all with my mind and my pen
and hope to do it all over again
Norman, wake up you're going to miss the bus.
