Make that change

“MAKE THAT CHANGE”

 The ‘last’ of the Wednesday ‘rap’ 

“AWAKE” 

Written by Daz… Inspired by the MJ fam… 

At around one, Emily came HOME…

Mum jumped from the sofa,

She was watching some goofy

midday talk show…

“How was your first day, Hun? “

“Great” Emily beamed.

“Have I told you how proud I am of you?

I can ask dad to give you back some ‘privilege’?

What do you miss? “

“Nothing” she babbled and

Slapped her hand in front of her mouth.

Something definitely was wrong with her…

“Emily? Sure, you’re okay? “

“I think so…

I don’t know what’s wrong with me? “

She plunged down on the sofa

Defeated…

Mum plunged next to her…

“You can tell me, sweetie”

“It’s weird… Ever since that strange dream,

I’m NOT Emily any more…

I mean I’m nice and happy…

I was miserable and rude before…

Even at the library,

I’m considered ‘different’”

She sighed.

“How ‘you mean different? “

“Well, she compared 16 year olds to

Roasting chickens taunting boys

with their tanned bodies…

I didn’t dare to tell her, I’m one…

Okay, WAS one…

I fibbed I was a PC nerd… “

She shook her head.

“Is that Bad?”

Emily only shrugged.

“I did find peeps that RESPECT each other…

They are so KIND,

It’s almost ‘surreal’ “

“You got NEW friends too…

WOW, slow down, Hun…

I can’t even ‘recognize’ you…

You sure, you’re still Emily, right?

WHO am I? “

“Don’t be silly, mum…

They claim it’s

The POWER of Michael… “

She shook her head.

Her mum chuckled at her comment…

Once, she got hit by it too in her teenies…

Still, she fell in love with Wayne,

However did that happen, hey…
