November Fifth

No one can predict 

Our country's future  

Various people watching and waiting  

Eager and scared for the outcome 

Making people crazy 

Burning ballots 

Everybody in our country 

Ready for the day, and yet not ready at all 

 

Friends, family, becoming divided 

Innocent people 

Fighting for their rights 

The person I trust with our fragile country is 

Harris

  • I Love Lemonade

    You tiptoe around

    Your feelings

    Keep them in a bag

    With a zipper

    And zip them up

    You say you're like lemonade

    You can be sweet

    But you can be sour

    And people told you

  • Vanilla Ice Cream

    Everyone likes

    Vanilla ice cream

    But chocolate 

    Is better

    So they take chocolate

    And the vanilla ice cream

    Just sits there

    And melts

    Until it's just a puddle
