If I were asked about my personal superpower I would state
My superpower is that I can create
A rhyme out of anything that happens to be on my mind
Ideas, observations, experiences, all find
A place in my writing, in the form of a rhyming verse
To recording my thoughts in any other form I am averse
*
This “superpower” may not a tangible benefit reveal
But when life gets overwhelming, poetry can heal
So I’d like to think of it as a superpower I possess
Conflicting emotions writing poems helps me process
*
Maybe this is not an answer that would be well received
In a job interview, but I truly believe
That as a flawed human being this is how I cope
With the struggles of life, shaping them in rhyming verses gives me hope
