My Mind is Made Up

Contributed by WilliamButlerSkates on Wednesday, 18th June 2014 @ 03:03:39 PM in AEST
Topic: toughstuff



My mind is made up
I'm leaving the dance team
If my parents are mad
They can join themselves
And do that stupid crap

A poem or dance
There is no debate
A poem you write
And with dance team you don't

I could write all day
Sitting alone in my room
In comfortable chair
With the lights off or low

A poem is a dance in you mind
Except it is not at all
Where dancing be dumb
Poems are smart
And good to do in your chair

My mom likes to yell
And tell me things
I like to not listen

Once at a wedding
My uncle gave me a beer
I wish I could live at a wedding
Or in my room
I got in trouble at school yesterdy for plagiarism
I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness
Starving
Hysterical naked
Dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry
Fix

This is interesting; I can tell you are one of those misunderstood people just like me except I don't get into a lot of trouble.

"I'm like the star within the corner of the sky
I'm like the flower blooming when the others die
I'm like the rain that falls from the ground to sky
I am that way because I walk so all alone. . ."

Excerpt from I walk alone which has a similar meaning to your poem. I like the style of this and the meaning (the person trying to fit in).

Always the debate between what we want and what others want us to do -- and you must follow your heart. I could write all day as well; however I have noticed that actually living gives me more to write about: a broader view of the world, even while I write less.

Great subject for a poem. Nice work! Blessings...
