Breaking the Societal Norm

A delicate dance, a subtle sway,
Expectations woven, in a societal way.
A woman waits, with passive gaze,
For a man to lead, with financial ways.

He pays the bill, the ring, the wedding fee,
The provider role, a lifelong decree.
She expects support, for herself and her kin,
A one-way street, where love may give in.

But some women defy, these norms so grand,
Contributing equally, hand in hand.
A true test of love, a gesture so fine,
When she invests, with a loving design.

Yet, in the courts, a different tale unfolds,
Assets divided, with a legal hold.
A woman shaped, by societal might,
To contribute little, in the dark of night.

A partner, not a burden, we must seek,
Emotionally and financially, a bond unique.
Let's break the mold, and redefine love's role,
A mutual journey, with a balanced soul.

to a sitcom his talent lent
he took the show by storm
and everyone knew him as “Norm!!!”

Social Cues that are Weird Not the Norm

The daddy was lying on the couch again
Spending all of his hours after work doing nothing
Wifey dear was cleaning, cooking, and doing laundry
What she always does after an eight-hour day of office stuff

The daughter saw, and realized women must be the worker bees
Men get to lie around and do nothing; she felt angry and resentful
Their son saw too, but he did not pick up the socially- weird cues
He began to help his mother – doing laundry, and cooking supper

Daddy never noticed that his wife or son were doing anything
He was zoned in on a TV screen, watching one pattern after another
Not really seeing any of it, just trying to keep out of their way
The daughter resolved never to get married, thanks to this revelation.

She never did, and she never cleaned either.
Her house was a kind of a hoarder’s house,
Daddy refused to come visit, but her mother and brother did.
They usually brought cleaning supplies, which made her laugh.

It's The Norm For The Lonely One

Look around your surroundings,
which abnormal things do you see clearly?
People catching busses and trains,
or the unkept beggar asking for money?

It's the norm for the lonely one to desire 
everything: a wife or someone to confide in and trust;
Have we found ours? Do we still search for that one? 
Which prize will we pay to cover the cost?

Lucky are the sons of the powerful tycoons
who live in true comfort and waste huge fortunes
on pleasures such as fine wines and luxuries;
why does luck favors some, not those with dreams?

It's the norm for the lonely one to desire
everything: let him love, laugh, cry and drink wine! 
Are we willing to end our pursuit and settle down? 
If this is our real wish, we have earned our crown!

Wanderer of busy streets and empty allies,
those are the wrong places to look for any love;
none of them can promise joy, only delusions:
examine your conscience and truly give!

Norm, Nate, and Hank Williams

This is the story of Norm and Nate, 
And Hank Williams, the great balladeer,  
And what was to be their horrible fate 
As they spun on this rotating sphere.

Nate the needle played hits on a platter, 
Spinning the sad songs Norm had made him.
Norm, as they’d say, was mad as a hatter,
But Nate the needle meekly obeyed him.

In a circle, the platter would revolve   
As Nate would sing sad sounds he found there,
While Norm, crying bitter tears, would dissolve,
As Hank’s words and voice, he couldn’t bear.

Hank’s million-dollar voice came from on high,
But the Lord gave him a 10-cent head.
He wrote the song, “So Lonesome I Could Cry” 
Lamenting leaves that would soon be dead. 

On New Year’s, ‘53, Hank Williams died;
Norm could play only that song and not move.
Hank saw the light, while Norm cried and cried,
And Nate was buried in a watery groove.

I Will Defy the Norm

I hear your doubt, I feel your scorn
But I will rise up, and defy the norm
I will not be held back, I will not be denied
I will break through, and reach the other side

No matter the odds, no matter the cost
I will not be stopped, I will not be lost
I will keep pushing, I will keep striving
I will keep believing, I will keep surviving

Your doubt may be loud, but my faith is strong
My courage will never waiver, no matter how long
I will not be beaten, I will not be bowed
I will keep going, until I am proud

I will reach the top, I will make my mark
I will show the world, I can light the dark
Your doubt may be loud, but I will be louder
I will rise up, and make myself proud.

The New Norm

The mad streets roam alone,
the mice people scuttle, just scuttle
lest they be found separately.
Bedlam slips its moorings,
boats are rocked.
Across America the inmates strut
out of the holes in their heads
pick a victim, kick down the heedless,
and the police watch their wristwatches
waiting for the shift to begin,
but none show up,
only the pavement patients,
and the sick souls who need help
to die.

The New Norm

We must learn to deal with the new norm
Things have changed since I was a kid
It's surely a different world since growing up
Is it better or not that's the question

For those who grew up during the war years
When the world was on the brink
Memories take over during a difficult time
Challenging of the missing link

The future was really not assured in those days
Atomic destruction was imminent
Made it through though in spite of all things
Still here as long as we remain vigilant

The True New Norm Is Here

People everywhere 
Talk of the new norm
Yet, there is a new norm
Which is the true new norm
Jesus is the Gateway to this
Mind blowing new norm! 
See into the spirit realm
Hear heaven speak 
Have a conversation with God
Learn to partner with heaven
Practice this new norm
And see your world turn
Right side up, fast forwarding
Your destiny and identity!

A Perfect Norm

A Perfect Norm

Night breaks, subtle dawn
Light spreads
The day is born
From the deep black dark
Awoken life is torn
Breathing in peace
A prefect norm

The Norm

A girl searched for the perfect fit
But found men quite the opposite
Whether tight or loose
They all love a noose
That squeezes for a little bit

The Norm

50 plus 50 plus 50 more 
are you kidding O.K. a golf course full
axnixmaxl's come to my house
the norm

oh 
hello Gorgo
say something if your there
must be Gorgon or Ceto
red bow
anyway your all bound up now
ready to go

Their Weird Is Our Norm

Things are happening which are deemed crazy by others
In my family, their crazy is our norm, so I keep quiet.
Not wanting to out my relatives or myself.
The more they talk of the “weirdness” which they disbelieve,
the more I feel the temperature of my face rise.

What is the matter? Someone says. You are all pink.
I excuse myself, pretending I am sick.
Wondering why we are in the know
When so many others have no idea
Worse, make fun of things that are our norm.

Maybe I have fallen in with the wrong crowd.
I dust my sandals off and skate to the beach.
Searching high and low for kindred spirits.
They are waving at me from every direction.
Souls who recognize I can see their light.
