Hi Everyone

Shermain Ballah 1991 (Williamsville)

Free verse
Ice breakers break more than Ice
Cracking my nerves like nuts in a cracker
Outer layer then inner
Nervously awaiting my splitting
I mean my turn
Thinking
Thinking
What am I going to say

Heyyyy.....
Minds goes blank
Come on speak
Speak ...
I am ...

My name is Sherman
No! shermain
(Mental face palmed)
I am a dancer but no longer dance
I love baking and sewing
Soap and candle making
Anything really to do with my hands
I'm thirty and single
Shoots no, thirty one
Christian
Enjoys reading for fun
....ammmmm
(Thinking)
Nothing else come to mind
Guess I'm done
Yep that's me in a nutshell
Hi Everyone.
