My Bio

My name is Mr. Moore, And I’m 5’2”. If you’re a young a black male, I care about you. I am the father of two daughters, And the husband of one. I believe in running, Until the race is done. I appreciate music, I appreciate it much. I am a drummer, With a distinct touch. I enjoy the sound of a saxophone, And if you mention Jesus Christ, IT’S ON. I play both drums, And sax by ear. I can play the rhythmic notes, If they are near. I like counting money, Because I’m crazy about math. I have a little "hooping" skills, So don’t get in my path. I had coached for five years, Being champs of the final three. Was put out at the buzzer, The first two were defeats. I had been with “The Academy”, For eight years now. “Tricks of the Trade”, Was about showing young men how. I am unique, And like a little rhythm. That is why I wrote, “My Bio” to be a poem.
