The Reprimanded
I can see it like I was a hero.
 Super, a being invincible,
 Who feels anger and becomes angry,
 Who feels jubilation and becomes jubilant,
 Who feels sorrow and becomes sad.
 A raucous noise that is constantly interrupting—
 My train of thought.
 
 Thousands of words crawling inside of my pestering and petulant mind.
 Am I weak?
 Am I corrupted?
 Am I insane?
 The creepy overflowing nonsense that harasses me at dawn.
 The lips of a man or woman that breathe tobacco in abundance,
 Their hazy smoke of socialization,
 Surrounding my overzealous desire to fit with the rest,
 Like a puzzle piece from a discontinued era.
 The putrid smell of my yearning to adapt to a century of,
 Manipulation, Confrontation, examination.
 Retribution, revolution, institution.
 Government, they say it’s unconstitutional,
 Who reacts with malice,
 Who creates a fallacy,
 Who bites each of their ears,
 In bitter carnivorous undertones.
 
 I range from forced diplomacy,
 To imposed refinement.
 Not a creature of habit,
 Rather a storm of impulse.
 It is a gift as well as a weakness.
 I impose my thoughts,
 And ravage yours.
 
 In my consciousness I see,
 Incessant mediocrity,
 Maniacal, media, masochism.
 Structure for the sake of structure,
 Concocted and conceived by historical,
 Civil and foreign propriety.
 Lost on our endless egocentric behavior.
 I am no longer searching for conformity.
 No, I am forever longing for Inspiration.
