Want to be what I want to be

but day revealed me to me

the way we are now for this moment

nothing was missed

tomorrow is marching in

without fanfare

without notice

Waikiki isn't there yet

It's not even a past dream

just a mirage before creation.

Sidewalks lead to roads

and they go to doors

that are filled with everyone going out

Downtown stores and windows

weren't made for christmas

did baby Jesus have a big belly

a white beard and go ho ho ho

Could these bells and sleighs be for something else

for celebration of the first winter in New York copyright Terrell Neuage City for a white person?

But this day brought no snow

just rain for palm trees to grow

and a sleigh being led by fiber-stuffed reindeer to go rusty in

Knowing Waikiki is dressed to dance

I throw out a laugh to the next man I see

with a white beard big belly ho ho ho

and he seeing my ho ho ho is phonier than his

screams over the ringing of the bell

'I never knew you wanted to be serious

always thought haoles dug this sort of joke'

So going back to the playland in the attic of Sears and Robuck

I build a fort out a thouSA copyright Terrell Neuagend little blocks

each with a letter on its side

to stop the ho ho hos

from stomping on my day

Then taking out my 'T'was the night before Christmas colouring book"

I begin colouring out my programme

to become what I want to become.
