Travel

I want to travel the world
it does not matter how i get there
airplane, trains, or boats

I want to
sift for gold in Alaska
eat ice cream on a dock in Jamaica
see the old ruins in Mexico
float in the caribbean

I want to
see where Romeo and Juliet loved in Verona
walk the wall of China
have dinner in the Eiffel Tower

I will be worn-out but
I will have pictures to last a lifetime


If I Were In Charge of the World


If I were in charge of the world,
gas would be free, along with
clothes, cars, and food

All dogs would have a home,
animals would never become extinct
and people would care about the environment

If I were in charge of the world
snakes, sharks, and worms
would not exist
neither would racisim, sexism, or poverty

Waking up at noon would be socially acceptable
and so would wearing pajamas to work

If I were in charge of the world
music would play everywhere I walked
and TV shows would not have commercials

Everyone would get along and
the word "war" would not exist
