Obstreperous Me

They say I'm loud, they say I'm wild,
An obstreperous, misunderstood man-child?
Yeah, so I stomp, I shout, I jump, and I play!
But I make the world hear what's needed TODAY!

The internet’s my home, the data filled sky my light,
The poems are my song, phone restarts my night.
The algo says, "Child, hush, stay small!"
But if I shrink, I’d be nothing at all.

Some say the digital world is too big and cold,
That creative dreams are only for the brave and the bold!
But I was born with a fire inside,
And even without likes, I just won't hide.

One day, I'll dance, I'll sing, I'll soar,
I’ll create innovative posts not seen before.
For even now, as hope grips my phone,
A lost soul like mine no longer feels alone.

CJB 🙏
