I Am This Child Who Loves Playing With Triangles Poem by Hebert Logerie

I am a former boy scout, a former altar boy.
I am this child who likes to charm pretty hearts.
I am this peaceful child who likes to draw angles.
I am this child who enjoys being around triangles.

I love to write. I love to chat a little bit with the friendly allies.
I like to strum the guitar at night to charm the neighborhood.
The flowers are pretty and the women are even more gorgeous.
I must admit that I am simultaneously peaceful and rebellious.

At the bottom of this ocean, where I am, I swim like a big shark.
I dive with the porpoises and grope the belly of the sperm whale.
When the curtains fall, I go to the beach to amuse the mermaid
Until dawn, until the stupendous appearance of the morning roses.
