Short Cognoscenti Poems

Can I be me today,
And forever after,
Without the judgement
Of the consensus or the cognoscenti?

Can I eat when I am hungry,
And perhaps when I am not,
Without the suffering 
Of the starving and the needy?

Can I weave my web,
And wonder at yours,
Without the hurt 
Of the biting and the venomous?

I can, but when I may,
This place you call Earth, I will call home.
