Prodigy
Every waking moment,
I breathe in fresh words
Every sleeping hour,
I inhale new ideas
When I'm standing alone,
I fashion poems long and short
When I'm sitting in a crowd,
I create songs that make people dance and cavort
No need for anyone to stare at me;
I'm just your normal savant,
your average prodigy
If I grasp an intricate line,
it stays firmly in my mind
If I concoct an unusual piece,
it shapes itself exponentially
Every waking moment,
I exhale timeless ideas
Every sleeping hour,
I respire ancient thoughts
No need for anyone to gawk at me;
I'm just your normal savant,
your average prodigy
