Simone Segal Poet Rhyme

Be Your Own Boss

Be your own boss
Set your own rules

Your thoughts and your feelings
Give you the tools

Imagination can be fun or a bi-ch
Imagine you're poor

Or imagine you're rich
Imagination, what is it for

It's for living your life
You are creator

So be your own boss
Disciplines not hard to swallow

It's just setting the rules
In which you must follow

Be the best you can be
In everything you do 

Remember this is not for me
You're doing it for you

So be your own boss
And make all your choices

Listen to you
And not other voices

Your life you create
By your thoughts and your feelings

So be your own boss
AND DO ALL YOUR OWN DEALINGS!!!!
