Throw a ham sandwich through the air.
Watch it fall and hit the ground, or maybe some one’s head.
Then smile when that person yells and throws it back.
Laugh when they miss and it hits the earth.
Toss an ice cream cone at an angry man at the buss stop.
Then trip over a twig lying on the ground.
Make the old man laugh at your stupidity.
The jump up and run away.
Give the lonely boy working at the Dari mart some flowers.
Make him feel loved and make him blush.
Then don’t wear shoes in that store, cover your feet with your jeans
And shuffle around through the store well doing a little dance.
Make the boy working there happy for that day.
The sing a bad song really loud well you’re at the video store.
Throw your hands up or dance like Boy George.
Bring the people around you out of the funk.
Soon every one there will smile and shake their heads.
Make every one laugh at you and smile.
Make the world happy to see your stupid dances.
Make the people around you happy even if people tell you you’re a jerk.
Just try to get the people to enjoy their days,
Even if you’re loud and annoying.

I love the sheer unself-conscious exuberance of this poem, and the court jester aim of lifting others' spirits through your self-deprecating tom foolery. I've read all your poems and enjoy this particular theme the best - I think it shows your true self through all the other teenage angst and wishful musings on experiences you haven't had yet, but no doubt will as you inevitably get older.
Yours is a young talent sometimes writing at a level of maturity that reflects an older soul. I hope you keep writing.
PS: do a spell check before you post! The less people are focusing on formatting issues, the more they will get in to the poem.
