I dont fit in here...
I'm a
placebo pill in a pinstripe suit
in this world of
designer drugs and mini skirts
I ride this breeze of unique
while everyone else
drowns in the winds uniform howl
thinking outside the box
while you are trapped within
all I see are mimes in this
rollercoaster ocean of boasting
mimics in this
spinning city of cynics
mocking movements made by the next man,
the BEST man
copping clothes conceived by so called
social queens and kings
dropping dim witted fifths of dimes with a middle finger demeanor
where does wisdom roll when
wisdoms pimpin a broken wheelchair?
rickety wheels and warped rims reaching out to repair
hows humanitys handbook high on the best seller
when half the handwritings hazy?
smudged largely due to smug smiles and neanderthal grips
pages kissed with novicane stuck gripes and ambesol lips
I dont fit in here...
 
actually i really like this, we have been there were we don't think we fit in or we just don't, either way, it just means is that really your priority to fit in ? :)
 
thank you cherub for your reply! :) but my intentions in this piece were to express my thoughts and feelings about the media fueled, stereo-typical bandwagon ridden society that has become what everyone seems to perceive as "normal" and "proper". lol my priorities definitely don't include fitting into that mold! :) just stating I don't hold those ideals to be my own... thanks for taking the time out to read this though, that alot means alot!
 
gawwwwd dayum...will you please get out of my head?
each and every word, i could have said this all myself, but not as well as you did of course ;)
***and to me, this is an asset. I truly enjoy looking at the world through these eyes. I am very thankful to be able to see this.

Man, if that isn't a brilliant metaphor for how it feels to be different to the majority, I don't know what is. :)

What can I say, fucking awesome work, it reads like a cross between poetry of the Allen Ginsberg variety and intelligent rap. :)

Absolute props!
