Lime Bread And Butter

Gluttonous screen helpings of
‘A long time ago in a galaxy far far away..’

Lime boombox with Madonna singing,
‘Only when I’m dancin’ can I feel this free.’

Bread and butter of a pig tail soul;
My base bricks, these memories built me;

Grew up drawn to creativity,
carved my yearbook space unequivocally;

Walked with sweet n’ sour hooligans 
who chose to live life differently;

Relentless teen of the DMV,
I learned the ropes on the trains of the city;

A poet with a head full of dreams,
and some of them I have made come true;

Ever changing but my roots are strong,
adaptable but loyal I forever stay;

Illuminating that smile I wore as a kid
are all the core memories that built me.
