Turning 12 is no party in the house
Turning 13 will be a sure louse
Turning 14 will be alot to handle
Turning 15 is no flame of the candle-

**After reading my poem 'Simon Says, ' a few readers have requested that I extend it in length, so this poem is the second version that I am comparing to the original to see which is more successful. (You might want to read 'Simon Says' first to understand this better.) **
Simon says sing a song
Simon says stop
...
Sticks and stones
May break my bones
But hurtful words
And evil deeds
...
There's something missing in my life
What it is, I do not yet know
For now, I can only guess at it
And it might reveal itself somehow:
...
Oxymoron, reverse pyscology
Upside down, backwards
Back to front, inside out
Irony, homographs
...
Is it perserverance
That makes us strive and achieve success?
Is it guilt
...
***This poem is the lyrics to a really terrible-sounding song I wrote, I thought the words were half-decent so I decided to publish it here on Poemhunter...***
Walkin' down the street, come to school today
All rain, no shine, all work, no play
