Don'T Be Afraid To Be Different
*Don't Be Afraid to be Different*
~Don't be afraid to be different!
Do be afraid to be the same as
everyone else~
I have never understood this insane passion!
But I see it everywhere.
People selling out their souls and
principles like cheap underwear.
Anything. Anything to be loved and accepted.
Have you seen this insanity, too?
Just keep your true thoughts to yourself, so
you can be part of the human zoo?
What's so wrong with being you?
You.....like everyone, made by God.
I know the feeling of hush-mouth,
when I want to fully express myself.
God and politics, what's all the
commotion about?
Frankly, because there is only one
God and we were brainwashed to
think anything else.
In politics, only evil rules!
If you dare speak of success or goodness.
Well, the great sentence placed
on you, is that something is
terribly off with you?
Free speech in the USA, is but a sliver.
Mention the First Amendment,you
see people's lips quiver.
The march to watch your mouth
is absolutely full-blown.
We poets must develop the courage,
to make our words stand for freedom
and to be our very own.
Yes, you may become unpopular in this
uncomfortable process.
You have to decide whether to wear a cute
and pretty dress.
Perhaps that is all you are able?
Or don the golden robes of integrity and truth,
that are so divinely impeccable!
