If I Were in Charge of the World

If I Were in Charge of the World

(a form poem with thanks to Judith Viorst)

If I were in charge of the world,

I’d cancel homework, math, and also homework again.

If I were in charge of the world,

There would be more ice cream stores,

More money,

And lots of flying bathtubs.

If I were in charge of the world,

You wouldn’t have spinach and broccoli,

You wouldn’t have toothbrushes,

And you wouldn’t have pets that poop in your house.

If I were in charge of the world,

Desserts would be a balanced meal.

All people would be awesome.

And a person who sometimes picks his nose and eats it

Would still be allowed to be in charge of the world.
