The Dream to be Hokage
Poem
They said I was a monster.
What is a monster?
They said I should know.
No one likes monsters.
They said things when I couldn't hear.
I could see their eyes.
They told me things I didn't understand.
I wish I still didn't.
But dispite it all I had one dream.
"Someday I will be Hokage!"
I listened to things that made no sense at the time.
And now I don't care.
Now everyone sees me.
Clumsy. Class-clown. Dead-last.
They tell me I'm stupid.
And I am.
But there's one thing I remember.
"Takes one to know one!"
The girls always argue.
What is a monster?
They said I should know... and I do.
Now.
It takes a monster to recognize another, after all.
Every single one...
They said I was a monster.
So that makes this a village of monsters.
I will be Hokage, for I hold the greatest monster in a village of them.
They said I was a monster.
It took a monster to show me that.
Kyuubi had the right idea.
To destroy this village from the inside out, that is what a true monster would do.
I would hate to fail in their expectations.
They said I was a monster, but first I must be Hokage.
END.
I'm sure this idea has been used before, but I was feeling angsty when I wrote it. You can read first all normal font, itallics, or all at once as it goes on. It still makes sense, to me anyway.
