PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

keeping company with the likes of a professed

non-conformist

for me is quite a new trail with a tantalizing

twist

I know very few that like myself refuse to stay

within the acceptable mold

it's not so tabu anymore to tell very shocking

secrets that have never been told

I love watching the cold folds of conformity

get unrolled and systematically sold

I know in years I'm really not so very old

its a common past time of mine to stand clear of

the modern human fold

so shoot me if I've been too bold

I appreciate the movement behind the action

but it's not being done for general purpose

more for self approval and satisfaction

can you not understand my natural adverse reaction

I know you mean well but meaning well does not

necessarily put the ringing before the proverbial

bell

now I find I must leave this work of strange  

so to enable myself to further galavant

my limits are limitless

my morality at this point almost scant.........
