Stand Back World

I am going to be a ballerina, dancing Exotically and beautifully, In a pink tutu, fluffy and frothy My arms will glitter with Glitz and sass. I will be streamlined, with an Appreciative audience who is Constantly amazed and awed by my flawless performance And if that doesn’t work out, I will be the owner of an orphanage, Taking in all of the children who Do not feel wanted. Giving them Whatever they need to like themselves Better My fallback plan is race car driver. I will zoom around the track, Antagonizing my opponents, Amazing my fans. I can hear Them cheering now. If a wrench lands in these Plans I will run away with The circus and be one of The pretty ladies with all the Make up who wears the Glitzy swimsuit type outfits, And rides around on the Bare back of a highly-decorated White horse. Stand back., world. I am ready to Be the star. I am seven, which Means I have been preparing For this kind of attention and These kinds of accolades for At least five years.
