so to use the Quintella’s form

one must know nothing

After nothing is attained

And at will you will be freed

And vanish in the wind

You are sitting on raw skin
Too thin to pad 
Your polyester lining
And conform to your 
Thick lines of droop

Like decades of neglect
And wound their way
To your tired set
Of withering reproach...

But as the stillness 
Stabs my ears
And I bleed with sorrow
I know I must conform
With the calm...

along central axis of form

as long as with love we conform

each breath is a bliss bout
vibrant in life’s end game...

Nature distorts humans
to conform to its pattern, in shape and form.
Stretching, bending, squeezing
the human form to somehow fit in,
as an odd Chameleon,
hiding out of place 
distorted and misshapen,
bashfully conforming in camouflage....

Tell

 me not

 how to think

 Above all else

 don't attempt to make

 me conform to the 'norm'

 I won't perform in your form

 For individuality

 is my strength and customary song

 Freedom suits me fine. It's where I belong....
