PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

IN A WORLD OF SEX CRAZED FOOLS

IT'S NOT BREAKING ANY RULES

TO BE STRICTLY PLATONIC

PEOPLE GET SO OBSESSED

WITH RELATIONSHIP STATUS

THAT'S NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS

I AVOID SPACE INVADERS

SOME THINK THEY ARE CRUSADERS

TO BRAINWASH YOU TO CONFORM

MAYBE THEY CAN'T IMAGINE

ANYTHING OUT OF FASHION

SHOULDN'T GET SOME REACTION

WHETHER THERE ARE MANY OR FEW

WHO FEEL THE SAME WAY AS YOU

YOU JUST DO WHAT YOU WANNA DO

NO JUDGMENT  HERE TO BE CLEAR

YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE YOUR OWN WAY

JUST LET OTHERS DO THE SAME

SOMETIMES I LIKE TO PLAY WITH RHYMES

MAYBE THEY LIKE TO PLAY WITH ME

AD INFINITUM I INVITE 'EM

MAYBE THEY INVITE ME

WHATEVER THE CASE

IT'S A MAGICAL  PLACE

WHERE I FEEL FREE

TO ESCAPE CREATIVELY

LOST AND FOUND IN LOTS OF THOUGHTS 

NOT SURE IF THEY MAKE SENSE OR NOT

SOMETIMES JUST BITS OF BRAIN CANDY

NEVER QUITE SURE WHERE THEY WILL LEAD

ONCE UPON A FAIRY TALE

FOLLOWED BY A BREAD CRUMB TRAIL

SCATTERED PIECES HERE AND THERE

LEADING ALMOST EVERYWHERE

YET NOT REALLY ANYWHERE

NO ONE SEEMED TO BE AWARE

THEY WERE FOLLOWED BY A BEAR

SO THERE WAS NO REAL SCARE

SO THERE WAS NOTHING TO SHARE

BUT MAYBE YOU SHOULD BEWARE

OF FAIRY TALES FOLLOWED BY BREAD CRUMB TRAILS

THEY COULD LEAD YOU ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE

IN THIS INSTANCE THAT IS THE CASE

DO YOU SUFFER FROM LOW SELF ESTEEM

DO YOU CARE TOO MUCH WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK

WHO CARES WHAT THEY THINK AND WHO ARE THEY

TO THINK IT'S OK TO HAVE THEIR SAY

SILLY MIND TRIPS LIKE THAT

BEST LEFT IN THE PAST

IT'S TIME THAT YOU RESPECT YOURSELF

DON'T WORRY SO MUCH ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE

SELF ESTEEM COMES WITH SELF RESPECT

SELF LOVE HAS A  WONDERFUL  EFFECT

BE THE BEST THAT YOU CAN BE

LET OTHERS DO THE SAME JUST SET YOURSELF FREE

WHY DO PEOPLE SELF DESTRUCT

SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS

WHEN HAS ONE HAD ENOUGH

AND REALLY WANT TO CHANGE

THAT SEEMS TO BE THE KEY

IF ONE IS TO SUCCEED

IN FIGHTING THOSE DEMONS

AND ALL OF THEIR REASONS

NO INTERVENTION CAN SUCCEED

UNLESS YOU CHOOSE TO PROCEED

DECIDE SELF LOVE'S A BETTER CHOICE

AND LISTEN TO YOUR INNER VOICE

IT'S BEST NOT TO FLIRT

WHEN YOU'RE NOT ALERT

HOW IT AFFECTS SOMEONE

THEY MAY BE OPPOSED

TO GETTING TOO CLOSE

AND JUST COMPLETELY SHUTDOWN

LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE UNDERDOGS

WHO HAVE LEARNED TO TRUST

THEIR HOPES AND DREAMS AND MANY SCHEMES

THEY'RE NEVER GIVING UP

WHEN STORYLINES ARE UNEXPECTED

WITH LOTS OF PLOT TWISTS AND TURNS

THEY DRAW YOU IN TO PAY ATTENTION

AND REALLY MAKE YOU YEARN

TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON

THEY CAN BE LOTS OF FUN

WHEN YOU'RE ABLE TO PREDICT TOO MUCH

YOU DON'T MAKE QUITE AS MUCH A FUSS

YOU TEND TO NOD OFF QUITE A BIT

AND THERE CAN BE A LOT YOU MISS

THEY'RE ALL FUN TO GET LOST INSIDE

SEEING THINGS FROM A CHARACTER'S EYES

I LOVE WHEN LINES JUMP OUT AT ME

I GO AND WRITE SOME POETRY

SEASHELLS SCATTERED AT THE SHORE

DO KIDS COLLECT THEM ANYMORE

SEAGULLS FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND

WAVES ALWAYS ERASING THEM

SANDCASTLES BEING BUILT OR SMASHED

BY WATER AND SAND A DELICATE DANCE

SOUNDS OF WAVES RUSHING IN AND WATER SPLASHING

BIRDS SINGING, DOGS BARKING, AND  RADIOS BLASTING

BEACH BALLS AND FRISBEES AND VOLLEYBALLS

PICNIC BLANKETS, SWIMMING, AND LOTS OF TOWELS

THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF A DAY AT THE BEACH

DON'T  SEEM TOO FAR OUT OF REACH
