Teasy

“Mommy.  Mommy I want Girl Power.”  I run to turn the TV on.  Xbox on
Why won’t she put it on?  Sissy’s gotta go to school.
I wanna go to school
Sissy’s gone; I can play in her room and her baby dolls
My Little Pony and jump on her bed
“Basper!  Babper!”  I don’t think I say his name right
I wanna be a dog
He gets the biscuits
They’re so yummy but she puts them up high
I think I’ll climb to get them
On the couch, the book shelf, one shelf, two shelf
Ah! Ha!  I got them.  They’re so yummy
Maybe she won’t notice, but here she comes
I was too quiet
“I wanna be a dog!”  I tell her but she says I can’t and walks away
Basper’s bone!  I’ll eat that and drink his water
But she comes again and I’m in trouble
Barbie! Barbie and mermaid tale!
“Mommy! It’s a mermaid!  Look at the mermaid!”
“I wanna be a mermaid!”
