But you tey being
SPIDERMAN for a month or two. Go ahead.
You get doze crazy calls fwom da
Gubbener askin you to twap some booglar who's
only twying to wip off color T.V sets.
Now, what do i cawre about T.V sets?
But I pull on da suit, da stinkin suit,
wit da sucker cups on da fingers,
and get my wope and wittle bundle of
equipment and den I go flying like cwazy
acwoss da town fwom woof top to woof top.
Till der her is. Some poor dumb color T.V. slob
and I fall on him and we westle a widdle
until I get him all woped. So big deal.
You tink when you SPIDERMAN
der's sometin big going to happen to you.
Well, I tell you what. It don't happen dat way.
Nuttin hapens. Gubbener calls, I go.
Bwing him to powice. Gubbener calls again,
like dat over and over.
I tink I twy sometin diffunt. I tink I twy

my heart beat at a difwent wate.
But den you just being sometin like

This poem was halarios since the poet used poetic lisense to it's full extent in this poem, the words arn't spelled right and the grammer is awful it may make some teachers scream i know mine would if we wrote like that.

Great poem! This poem was very commical. It was about a guy who thought he was Spiderman. It was a bit weird and confusing the way it was written. It sort of made you use your brain to understand it and it made you think.

This poem was so cute! We can just see the little boy talking about his dream of being spiderman and trying to convince everyone that he is. We think that this poem is really funny too! We enjoyed reading it together because it was fun to read, like trying to pronounce all the un proper words.

I absolutly LOVE this poem! It's so funny yet really deep. I think that the meaning of this poem is really strong, but the poet had a good way of making it funny too! I can't wait till we make our teacher read this at graduation!!!

I teach Spanish students in Spain, English, and found it interesting that they were somewhat offended at the "speech impediment" of Spiderman. They put themselves in his shoes and felt it could have been them. They pronounce "that" as "dat", and roll their r's and pronounce "wo" as "gvoo". So you can imagine from their perspective that it wasn't dat funny!
I, myself, found the poem very entertaining and got the impression that the message was for every one of us. We can all feel the pressures of our roles in life and their importance, and our lives put us into “suits” to deal with the pressures. Eventually, we become locked into our suits and are unable to change even if we want to. Maybe dat’s ouwr pwobwem!
This poem was hilarious and my favourite poem ever!!!!

I think this poem is very unquie and funny to say Ithink the poem is trying to say be who you want to be not who someone else wants you to be!
I THINK THIS STORY WAS FUNNY AND IT WAS AWSOME AND THERE ARE LOTS INFORMATION IF YOU TO PUT IN ON TO MICROSOFT WORDS IT WOULD BE LOTS OF ERRORS AND THE POME WAS INTERESTING.
HERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT I WORLD CHANGE. THE TITLE FROM MAYBE DATS YOUR PWOBLE TOO SOME THING THAT KIDS CAN UNDERSTAND LIKE SPITERMAN BECAUSE AND IT HAS LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTSSSSSS OF DETAIL AND WOULD TELL KIDS SPITERMAN IS NOT WHAT HE SEMES LIKE

i think that this person is trying to say that be who you want to be and not who other people want you to be and that its hard to be someone your not so why bother, because its not you.

"maybe dats youwr pwoblem too"is a great pome i think it means that if you are some one famous or a hero it's not always the best.
you have no time to do what you want only the time to help.

This is a great poem. But I think he's right. He has a point. My dad says he hates his job, he wants to get out of construction altogether, but maybe his "suit won't buin" either. Dad and this guy who talks like Elmer Fudd, and even Mom, are all in the same boat. Their "suits won't buin. They're fwame wesistant."

This poem was hilarious. I started to read it out loud to hear all of the mistakes the little boy has when he's talking. My favourite part was when the boy talks about burning his suit and complains that it's flame resistant, like that's a bad thing. The little boy obviously got bored of pretending to be Spider-man so he starts talking about all of the lame things he does, what a silly little boy.
This poem was funny and had some very deep meaning, like when you are given a responsibility you have to follow through just like the little boy must follow through on pretending to be Spider-man. Great poem.
