My Inner Voice

My inner voice can be my choice, the star of stage or screen, The pop star that each fan enjoys, some guy who's squeaky clean… A cowboy with a howdy smile, an Indian asking, How? Or Fred Astaire with all his style, or Spock with upturned brow… I can copy Superman and Spider-Man as well, And Robin Hood, oh, yes, I can and even William Tell… My inner voice is Michael Caine,0-0-7 Bond, James Bond, I sometimes talk like I'm John Wayne or Harry with his wand… I can sing like Nat King Cole, that's when I fall in love, But mostly it has been my goal to prove my voice enough… My inner voice sounds just like ME each second when I write, But when I stop my poetry each fantasy takes flight… I'm just like Walter Mitty, I'm just like Danny Kaye… No wonder I'm so witty every single day!
