Mad Kid

Mad Kid
By Auntie B 1/27/10

Am I a good kid
Or a bad kid?
Maybe I am just
A mad kid.
If nothing in your life
Went right
Wouldn't you be
Inclined to fight?
And if you tell me
To be cheerful
Please expect
To get an earful
If your whole world
Was going wrong
Would you be happy
Very long?

You think that you'd
Be sad?
Oh my. . .
Well then. . . maybe . . .
So am I

Peel a mad kid's mask
And you might find
A sad kid hiding
Right behind.
