Straightening strands of hair
Combing them into place
Then putting on my favorite shirt
Which will soon reveal my shoulders, ah,
I swear that's a mistake.
Am I really Icky?
Because Icky Ike is what they call me
Are their minds stuck in the 3rd grade?
That's what it seems to be.
Ah, was that rude?!
My apologies
For being so crude
But ah, you see
When it comes to English, I'm a prodigy.
But I admit,
I'm not all that smart
For I too submit
To the beckoning of laughter and go-carts.
I paint my nails a beautiful black shade
And then walk down the boardwalk
No longer worrying about grades
and all the nonsense, 3rd-year talk
I meet no one, but that's okay
I'm a one man show
I go my own way.
I feast on cotton candy
And admire the beach
Water lapping at the shores so sandy
And — wow, what elementary speech!
I walk around, studying faces
Their clothes, their manners
From their kisses to their embraces
Ah, what a Wonderland this has been
Unlike college, I find air to breathe
But the hour I become tired strikes at ten
And it's drawing near my time to leave.
At the end of the day,
My messy face greets me in my hand mirror
But no worries, I know how to allay
I'll just turn on the shower
Be in there for an hour
Forget all the noise
Of those obnoxious boys
And then go outside to admire my flowers.
Icky Ike?
What a name.
If they weren't so apelike
I'd play their game
But it's no use
I'd be a brute
If I really went onto them
Or would I
This could be a lie
I'm just rad and sad
No, just Ike.
Heyy! So yeah, this was for an Aesthetic Moodboard challenge I did over on Amino. I seem to be obsessed with joining contests as of late, hoo wee. >-< I tried to incorporate as much of my moodboard as I could, but in the end I realized there were still some things I left out. Also, I didn't get anywhere in the results, if anyone's wondering. But it's okay! It's not evenabout winning for me or even getting a spot in the results. It's simply about the experience and having fun, you know? I really just join contests because it gives me something to draw, haha. :">
Sooo yeah! This is Ike! I decided to write an in-character poem for him (knowing fully well I'd only be judged on my art) because I fell in love with him so much. He's amazing. He loves candy, lmao. I would make a Mike & Ike's joke, but I already have everywhere else so I'm not even gonna go down that path anymore. Lol.
Thanks for reading all of this!
