Question:I am a chocoholic, shopaholic.
I wonder what everything would
be if there was no such thing as
anything.
I hear cats barking, and dogs meowing.
I see brown cows producing chocolate
milk.
I want to eat a cosmic amount of junk food
everyday, and not gain any weight.
I am a chocoholic, shopaholic.

I pretend that I smoke sometimes.
I feel like I’ve been touched by an angel.
I touch a rainbow, and its’ pot of gold.
I worry that a hurricane is going to sneak
up on me.
I cry when I see terminally ill children on
infomercials.
I am a chocoholic, shopaholic.

I understand that today could be my last,
because of life’s uncertainty, and fragility.
I say that we are all the same, but in different ways.
I dream of taking a bite out of the sun.
I try to stay positive when times get rough.
I hope that Simple Plan will do a big concert
In Toronto.

I like it a lot! It's just neat. I don't like the last line though. It doesn't fit. I like the chocoholic, shopaholic thing. It tied it together and seemed like it was the framework of who you are, without defining everything you are; like, that's what you are, and how you categorize yourself, but what you really are is so much deeper, that those are just the ties that bind you together. I would put another detail about yourself in the last stanza, and then finish with the same line you use in all the others, or find a really great last line to tie it all together. Something that jumps out and REALLY defines who you are. I would replace the Simple Plan line with something a bit more vague, deep, or some kind of metaphor. It really is good though. I'm impressed.

yea, its pretty good.






but simple plan sucks.
