About Amanda's January Inaugural Poem Poem by Hebert Logerie

Amanda Gorman was unquestionably amazing
And unbelievable at the inauguration of Biden
She read the poem with sheer conviction and ease
With style and elegance, and the world was pleased
That was great and startling, without exaggerating
We can't wait to see more of her gem or paragon.

Life is about growing up every godly second of the day
We actually started learning from our mother's womb
We fight and struggle through life, even under normalcy
And things are more difficult for members of the minority
Fear rules, but in reality nobody alive should fear the way
Things are. Regardless of the affairs, we'll end up in a tomb.

Apparently, nothing is perfect; approaching perfection is
What the world wants or desires. Remember that the critics
Exist; they are somewhere waiting to strike like sharp shooters
They are maybe abeyant right now, under the heaven of glitters
Be ready when they'll wake up from dreams and trials with teas
That nobody wants to drink, at the dawn of the era of the ticks.

Poetry has been in perpetuity a useful and rhetorical tool of politics
Without poetry the world would be dull: no spices, no songs, and no lyrics
Great orators recite beautiful verses or quote famous poets of the past
To energize, calm and soothe the spleen, heart and soul, and to at last
Solemnize or commemorate famous or sad events of the last centuries
Let's all enjoy the Amanda's January poem like trees in a cool breeze.
