Poem Innovation

Hey!

Hey, Earthquake!
Your powerful arms
spare-tackles me like Batista
and scares the hell out of me
I don’t like that!

Hey, Thunder!
Your loud voice
Roars like a lion
makes me shiver like a leaf
I don’t like that!

Hey, Hurricane!
Your many strong arms
Spinning like bayblades
Hitting everything in its path
I don’t like that!

Hey, Volcano!
Your temperature is rising
Your blood is boiling
You spit out fire
I don’t like that!

Hey!
