A 12 year old response

keontae jackson 2010 (regional)



The best poem in the world
will never be heard
when everyone writing
the best song in the world
the best song in the world
will never be heard
when everyone is gazing at
the best painting in the world
the best painting in the world
will never be witnessed
when everyone is acting
the best play in the world





However,a world  were the best poem
is buried  in a stack of poems \
the best song is drowned out
by a billion voices
the best painting lost in a gallary
in the best performance
competing  with limitless performance
will not sacrified  
for a limitless
