Waxing Poetic - A Self Portrait in Words

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)


I strive to be the unusual,
the eclectic, the different, the strange.
I revel in acts of oddity,
of obscurity and uncertainty.

I once wished to be normal,
to fit like a welcome piece,
but now I unleash potential,
dreamt of by those that solely follow.

Sneer at my lack of shame,
my wild dance or goofy gaze,
and all the while I will smile
as I craft my own way.

I am a maker, a dreamer, a fool,
A knower of nothing,
Surrounded by everything,
with an open heart and mind.
