Thinking

In a different life

She would hold her own

Be visible, viable and

Verified. Not like now when she is different just for

Thinking.

You Matter

Keep moving, walking, doing, loving,

feeling. Don’t stop

to think.

Don’t dwell upon the ones who want to see you flunk it.

Keep standing upright. And keep being you.

You matter.

Not to Fit

Sorry, they say, you are just not the right fit.

And I want, really want, to have a fit, right there and then.

I don’t.

Because then I’d be even less of the right fit than before.

What if I had?

Had a fit?

I fit. I try it and I feel it. It fits and I feel

fit. Really FIT!

Inadequately Exceptional

Oxymorons, they teach us in school,

we must seek, find and reference,

if we want

to be identified as exceptional.

So, I find one which turns out, they say, to be

exceptionally inadequate. But

I know they are wrong, because I know the truth is so much more

inadequately

exceptional.

Exclusive

Lines drawn, bent, broken and crossed

are re-straightened.

Fixed and stubborn.

Adults – not children – playing imaginary games.

Living dangerously, I make up my own mind.

And I straddle.

Paranoia

Paragliding through his paranormal ideas of what it is to be a human in an alternate reality, he concludes that to be normal is not, particularly, of paramount importance.

But, still, he feels and fears the perception of others and knows what it is to be paranoid.

Even so, his heart beats faster and his pulse races with potential.

And purpose.

Rage

Rage.

Rageous.

Raging it over.

Rage could be of benefit to the most

rageous of the enraged.

Traction

To not attract

the reactive

type

is to be nudged across the void and into the surety of

old, wrinkly and non-tractable.

What it is to Be

To be or

not

is hardly the choice that according to some is the be or

the not to be that

it is to be.
