I choose to be me

I can be hell on wheels
if hell existed
I can be tommorows stale bread
if today there was a loaf  in  the cupboard
I can be a doctor
with a couple hundred thousand dollars and 8 years of education
A lawyer if I could master a lie
A child-at heart
I can be a poet with words and expressions
A musician if I had rythmn
A time traveler in another dimension
I could make peace given the chance
I could make rain with a dance

I could travel to the moon with high anxiety from fear of heights
Swim across a river with a little bit of training
Run in a marathon if I put my mind to it
Climb a mountain if I knew the direction
I can smell a flower, without picking it
Tell someone when they have snot hanging out of their nose, their fly unzipped, food on their face, their shirt unbuttoned, or any other thing you wish someone would have said to you.

Yes,  I can be a whole bunch of expectations

I choose to be me.
