Jump-Start
can't turn over
battery's dead
need jumper cables
in
my
head
clamp them on
start me up
pour some coffee
in my cup
dark strong coffee
start me up
By Janet S. Wong
I like this poem because i can really relate to it, some days you feel really dead tired, and you need coffee or something to "jump start" you. The author is comparing a person that is tired and needs coffee to be woken up and needs to start thinking again, to a car with a dead battery that needs to be jump started . Although the poem does not follow a rhym scheme, there is one that follows the sentences, just not the lines. This is a really simple poem, but that is one of the reason I like it, I can relate to it, as it happenes to most people all the time. The picture is a guy who is tired and needs something to "jump start" him, this is what some pople are like without their coffee, or other things.

I can certainly relate to this feeling, too.
