Bora born
Super-size me _
Five foot five
level eye
my dad's height
he told me.
Five foot high
charcoal eye
my girl's height
believe me.
I'm ok
go five each
way, to find
which height to
re-size me.
So now it's
five foot high
or, five five
plus five, to
find my height
to size me.
To our eye
five feet high
gives our mind
impressions
to deal with.
Five feet ten
another
impression
of someone
with shoulders
to lean on.
So which eye
justifies
the half truth
that's hidden.
Or which ear
will hear clear
that no truth
is found, when
you listen.
Actually I'm 5'10
