Poem Title:
Poem
Joy for me means that You are here where I once sat Clutching the reigns Playing political games Taking over my tasks Saying ‘I am not wearing any deceptive masks’ Making decisions Moving into position No longer in a hurry I do not worry Since I had nothing to bury I told the truth When things hit the roof Reality came showing fall out Leaving people to shout Joy for means that You are sitting where I once sat Cooling the heat Reclining in the hot seat Doing my beat Claiming I was a cheat Go ahead you sit there Do not look like you have a scared Are you ready and prepared? Realizing it is now all your affair Getting the power play chair Such a dare Strategized by your pair Joy for me means that You sit where I once sat Choked up on the bat Ready to hit the home run Since this competition you won Here I go With what I know Shall I take in an entertainment show While at the party you will glow And in a couple of years You will be the one in tears While I chat it up at the local pub having beers Enjoying the scene having nothing to fear Watching you take the press club spear After being hunted down like a defenseless deer Am I afraid to lose Is that what you accuse? I have here this stage Maturity living out my adult age A podium to protect me Which you all could see Asking if I am afraid to lose Hearing the protest and boos Knowing what I have done Seemingly having too much fun Now today I must say My competitor used the event That I spent Inside my public servant office tent To make me look bad Desperate and sad Listening to the complaints From those denouncing ‘I am a saint’ Challenging the one who did paint My portrait On the wall it fit Waiting to have a neighbor Image has the likeness to my invader Tell me if I lose Are you going to accuse? The new one everyone decided to choose Or are you going to refuse The winner whose Ready to lose Since I am not afraid Of not making the grade Instead, I will be proud of what I made Not allowing a trade That would result in the raid Being defeated Now kindly beat it This issue needs not to be repeated Instead It is dead That is what I said Now put your story to bed
