Sweater Vests

Sweater-vests are so cool

I wear them all the time,

Yeah,

Even at school.

So, I’m a tool

What of it?

You think you’re so nifty

Well, you don’t look so thrifty

So kick me,

A little boy just screamed:

“Ew, he licked me! He licked me!”

Johnny, stop it

Don’t lick anyone

That’s rude

Calm it down a bit

Don’t intrude

on my bliss

Well hey now,

     Check out those wrists

But you can’t top this

Check it with a plane white tee

I’ll dress it up

with a button down

So will you PLEASE

                  Look at me!

No, I said

                     Look at me!

I’m like a four year old

learning my ABCs

I’m so proud

You could spot me in the crowd

But it’s only because

sweater vests are so cool

Don’t look at me like I’m a fool

It’s the fashion key

Just wait.

You’ll see

This has been my one and only attempt at slam poetry.  Having recently graduated from boarding school, I rocked the sweater vest on occasion and found them to be quite fashionable though my classmates would most likely disagree.  Anywho, give me some feedback or send in your own!  Slam poetry is serious fun.  Try it out!  =D
