Reflection

my name is izzy
izikiel
i am a man
er...maybe not
not yet at least

not legally, at least
i am paranoid
admittably,yes
and from the heart
i hate that

i am not bright
not for my age
17
18 soon
but for now 17

i am a brave
a redskin
one of the three fires
patowatomi
if thats spelled right

warm welcome outside
cold on the inside
kinda like a freezer
i write odd poetry
kinda like this

kinda like...me

my name is izzy
izikiel
i am a man
i write poetry...
just like my mother
