Jade

There was a big macho guy named Jade. When you saw him he put you in the mind of Andrew Dice Clay. Who wanted to be a comedian. He often thought it shouldn't be that hard. The thing was, once he got introduced the crowd roared with laughter without him saying a word. He was dumb founded . He didn't think it would be so easy. Jade got really famous. He changed his name to Jayden.Said a few words and got booed off the stage. 8-27-16

Cool and funny poem, Alexis. Very pointed humor. Says a lot about human nature, people don't like change much, or don't accept it easily enough. Good, smart write. Kudos. Much love to you.

People like us for what we are; changes might not appeal to them at all! Of course, it could also work the other way round:) ~ Regards // paul

I've known more males named Jamie in my lifetime than females, you write disproves the saying "would a rose by any other name smell as sweet" sometimes it is the name that proves a thing. hugs x
