Within Myself
To the world I politely smile and ever am so meek
hold my tongue for attention I do not seek
Life is easier without a fuss
just do what you must
Live and let live
overly give
peace
safe
in your place...
Within myself I scream and shout
crude and rude leaving no doubt
about my attitude
so long overdue
Point of view sharp is a sword
words a plenty colorful and more
suggestions frankly lewd
dress you down nude.
I dress plain always the same
boring life is the game
No one bullies or bothers me
everything quiet let it be
Within myself natures way
out butt naked every day
any stares or judging me
double fingers I point at thee
Eat dainty chew slow
food in public not a show
Napkin on your lap
over tip at that
Within myself shovel it down
belch loud enjoying the sound
Gulp your drinks others too
open your mouth as you chew
For happiness and tranquility
others faults never see
Live in peace and harmony
be as one and let all be
Within myself let them know
their dumb and ugly and it shows
Tear em down and bury them
as you curse with a grin
Better to hold it within
as desiring it the same as sin?
Meek and humble the life I live in
within myself those thoughts begin and end.
