    Poem Commentary

    People exist whom fool themselves, convinced they're always right and have a right to force their views, mentally harrass and judge other people. This work is for those special people.

    NEEDLESS PROVOCATION .. UNCENSORED RESPONSE

    Observe your mind .. if possible
    Don't ask me
    Though i'm honest
    I can't enjoy rhetorical questions

    I'm a temporary transient
    Visiting my ancestor's past .. home land
    I've moved on
    Presently i dwell on another planet

    My firm, opinionated thoughts
    Are different from yours
    Suggest .. if you will
    Plans you've made .. especially for me

    Pushing and shoving
    I realize you're an amateur psychoanalyst
    Cerebral digging
    Answers .. you desire

    Quickly i'll pretend to agree
    Walk the line .. with a straight face
    Go through the motions .. point A to point B
    I won't acknowledge
    You're fooling yourself

    I'll act dumb .. notice you gloat
    Convinced you're one up
    My number .. you believe you have
    You feel great
    Influence paid off
    Always getting your dominant way

    You accept first impressions
    Alas .. you entertain being cool
    Smooth .. exactly like the majority
    Clone one .. clone two

    I'm free .. being me
    Without your ridiculous stamp of approval
    Needless provocation .. Uncensored response

    Hahaha I LOVE this. It makes me think of a badass just going through the motions so he can get on with living. I love your stuff you are very creative and I don't think you can get any more original.

    Hahaha that's me on occasion...j/k. Your kind words are most humbling. I'm glad you enjoy my writing, thank you for your inspiring input. When you have a chance read Yellow Dawn if you haven't already, one of my fav's.

    Ambiguous enough to be comforting to all parties in a squabble, compelling me to take a stand. I invite your comments on Duh?

    Yes, stars surround us all and many of us simply don't list which star we were born on since this knowledge will be rejected. Thank you Olan for coming by to read/comment....SBear
