MY FIRST POEM
HOMAGE TO MY HIPS
These hips
are big hips
They need space to move all around in
they don't fit into little, petty places
These hips are free hips
they don't like to be stopped or held back
These hips have never been enslaved
they go where they wanna go
they do what they wanna do
These hips are mighty hips
these hips are magic hips
I know them to put a spell on a man
and spin him like a top
These hips are mine and their mighty fine
Take homage to my hips

This is not really an original but I tweaked it to fit what I would like to read but either way I started with it when performing at school, I still did more at home.
