I AM AN AMERICAN
by Nick

I, am an American, always in a giddy mood
I, am an American, there are others to cook my food
I am an American, I can roam outside and play
I am an American, I can choose inside to stay

I am an American, and I have a famous 'tude.
I am an American and I hate when I'm called rude
I am an American, I like to argue all the time
I am an American and I just threw out a dime

I am an American, I get in trouble when I steal
I am an American, without a worry 'bout a meal
I am an American, and I'm above some of the rules
I am an American and I come from killer fools

I am an American, I couldn't marry who I loved
I am an American, our smaller groups are pushed and shoved
I am an American, and it's okay for me to kill
I am an American and it's the farthest from a thrill

I am an American, we think we are so great
I am an American, bred to work, complain, and hate
I am an American, never in a giddy mood
I am an American, and I'm afraid to eat our food

I love the title, especially the caps, it conveys the sentiment VERY well!!

Not sure on the repetition, I mean I like how it reinforces it, and it's like a mantra...but it would work just as well at the start of every second line or every stanza I think. That's the only criticism I can come up with :P.

Thankya thankya!

I wanted to be obnoxious with this one, just because I feel like thats the impression people have on Americans... and its a little true, haha.

About Plastic
Hello! My name is Nic, and I write words and things that rhyme sometimes... just like that! :3

I'm inspired by basically anything and everything. Legends, folklore, and mythology, personal experiences, and things-that-could-be-a-children's-poem-turned-macabre are a few of things I like to write about the most.
On the other side of my writing spectrum, is my love of movies. I wish to be a screenwriter some day, so... movies are pretty important to me.

I have an extremely healthy obsession with the four elements (Earth, Air, Water, and Fire), and Tegan and Sara.
Thank you for reading my words, it really means the world!

Writing Style
Fantasy/Mythology, Comedy, Sexuality, Politics, Religion
