Your On In Five....
26 August, 2004
Author: Ben Franklin
My bellies going up like tower bridge,
and it also feels like I
got a permanent stich,
see, I got to go on stage soon
to perform my 'spoken word',
a year ago I would of thought all this was
absurd,
now finally Im gonna be
heard,
I wanna open their ears
then open their eyes,
Im honestly not in it to win a
prize,
Im gonna speak about life,
how Harry lost his wife,
how I got stabed in the back by a friend with an emotional
knife,
about how politics will never be fair
and how we need to turn over our priminster Mr.Blair,
I really do hope they will care.
