Waxing Poetic - A Self Portrait in Words

in #poetry8 years ago (edited)


I strive to be the unusual,
the eclectic, the different, the strange.
I revel in acts of oddity,
of obscurity and uncertainty.

I once wished to be normal,
to fit like a welcome piece,
but now I unleash potential,
dreamt of by those that solely follow.

Sneer at my lack of shame,
my wild dance or goofy gaze,
and all the while I will smile
as I craft my own way.

I am a maker, a dreamer, a fool,
A knower of nothing,
Surrounded by everything,
with an open heart and mind.

I couldn't agree more. I find great satisfaction on finding just the right thing to complement any given moment, be it a song or story or funny meme. There's so much out there that it's impossible to be bored!
