I Am

I am a crazy person who likes rollerblading.

I wonder if my rollerblading team will become

professional.

I hear the scrape of rollerblades.

I see me going down a ramp and flipping

in the air.

I want a new wheel for my rollerblade.

I am a crazy person who likes rollerblading.

I pretend that I am a Soul Skater.

I feel like they are really there.

I touch my blood when I fall.

I worry that I will break my bones.

I cry when my skin splits open.

I am a crazy person who likes rollerblading.

I understand the law of gravity.

I say, "I can't stop!"

I dream I will meet my favorite author.

I hope I will get a new bike.

I am a crazy person who likes rollerblading.
