This poem was written for the blogadda “Being Invisible” contest

If I could turn invisible

With a flick of the switch

I would stir up trouble

And no one could snitch

I’d slam doors and turn off lights

Open faucets, give folks a fright

I’d tease the dog and scare the fish

If I was invisible, such a lovely wish

Travel the world @ business class,

Wouldn’t need tickets and a passport

I’d eat free buffets, never have to fast

Life then would be a wonderful sport

I’d take toys to orphans,

Give clothes to the poor

The hungry I’d give rations

Sans publicity that I abhor

I’d hug the sleeping motherless children

And tickle them till the woke with a laugh

Spread candy on their beds and then run

Before their giggles woke up the staff

I’d soon tire of being good, oh! what a bore

For excitement my soul would yearn

I’d beat bullies, rob banks or a jeweler store

My identity no lawman could ever discern

Then to take a break from crime

I’d visit an old age commune

Listen to the oldies talk about their time

And with them their songs I’d croon

Oh! If I could turn invisible

With a flick of the switch

In the mall’s parking lot I’d amble

All automobile locks I’d trip

I could stir up excitement

Without even a thought

I’d never have to repent

Since I’d never ever get caught
