Poem 1: BREAKING NEWS

Our first poem assignment was to write about President Barack Obama's First 100 days!

My response...

BREAKING NEWS
Breaking News
The President loves his Blackberry
Wait...he doesn't have an iPhone?

Breaking News
The President ate breakfast
Wait...he doesn't use syrup

Breaking News
The President plays basketball for his workout 
Wait...he doesn't swim or jog?

Breaking News
The President's pants are too tight
Wait...he's not a thug with baggy pants

SERIOUSLY?! Is this Breaking News?
Focus on the issues
We're finally our of the "Bushes"
And this is all you've got?

The poor guy can't win for losing
It's all about his skin color
When his decisions affect all shades and sizes
When will realize?
Hate him or love him

He IS OUR PRESIDENT
Criticize all you like...
But this President has put a bigger dent in America's issues in the first 100 days than the last President did in the last 8
So let the man breathe 
And do his job

Focus on this issues
You know the important ones
Like healthcare, education, this never ending war
Otherwise just give me a BREAK....NEWS!
