As Guilty As I Am Poem by Hebert Logerie

You are as guilty as I am
You confessed of loving yellow yam
You claimed that it is sweeter than sweet potato
You encouraged me to snatch a tomato
That I happily put in your mouth
You loved it and you laughed
You are as guilty my dear
Now, you're putting fear
In me.You dared me
To do something stupid
Now, you want to scare me
I was dumb to follow Cupid
You are as guilty as I am
You are going to jail Ma'am.
