If I Wanted To Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

If I Wanted To



I could hop all day on one foot,
If I wanted to.

'But why would you want to? '

That's exactly the point I'm trying to make.
Why should I go out of my way,
To prove to anyone what I can do.
If I have chosen not to want to do it.

'I'm cool with that.
It seems to me there is a lot you could do,
If you wanted to prove it.
But at least 'you' know you have that option.'
