My Inner Child Is Sitting On My Knee

My inner child is sitting on my knee 
most of the time
directing the rest of us

not prissy but confident
self-assured, slightly sexy
ready to take anyone down who is not ready to play

One of my personalities is arguing with her now.
The rest of us smirk.
She always wins

I love this comment. If you do not write a poem about this Joe, you have lost a great idea!
