They take what I write
At face value…
Apologies
But what I design
Hardly resembles a bank note.
Discerning one’s mind
Rather, mine
Does not take simple sifting
Or your own understanding.
Watch them catch feelings
Because it’s starting to register
In their brain
That I exhibit
A different kind of grey matter.
Offended when abstract ideas
Collide with their reality;
What do they say about that again,
“If the shoe fits…?”

O.D. 
aah, I really liked this piece 🙂
Thank you my friend 🙂 …hope you’re having a pleasant weekend 😀
Now it looks like I’m stalking you, which I’m not but am aware that it looks like I am.
This made me smile.
I just realized something Pixie, we’re gonna make good friends 😛
I believe you might be right, Dante.
I’m summoning up the courage to read your piece on Martin Luther King. I will take a few moments to collect myself as I know it will hit a chord. One must be prepared for every eventuality, that, and the fact that I have egg on my screen. The combo just doesn’t work.
Lol that egg…I’ll be looking over your poetry as well, your writing style intrigues me…it has this grace & rebellion dichotomy…I simply appreciate poets who go for the original
Take your time. I’ve only been writing for a few months and yet I think I’m finding that I have a particular love for a certain way of writing. Ever the rebel, that’s me. One of society’s misfits.
Nice…you should definitely stick to it…it really stands out 😛
Thank you. That’s really really good to hear because I was and still am contemplating reverting back to how I was before, when words didn’t feature in quite the same way. I was setting myself a deadline for the end of the month and was going to archive the poetry and focus on nonsense and fitness.
