(When the lies are wearing thin...)




They command me not to step out of line
But will not tell me where the line leads
Just follow the yellow brick road
It's always been done that way
Greater than I have failed
Why buck the system
Don't make waves
Conform
Blink
No Way
I just can’t
Who are these clowns
Feeding me their lies
Their methods are all wrong
The line is leading nowhere
So I'll make my own paths now
Simon will not say what I can do
Someone has to tell the king he's naked

~*~ Very clever and creative write with a poignant message dawned. I Love the 'Hour~Glass' shape to the verses!!! Father Time... speeding sands of our life in form... this life fast slipping away. What Wisdom's Innocence have we gained which qualifies us for the rarefied and Immortal Ambrosial Beyond? We must follow our own Wisdom Truth, revealed from within during our prayers and meditations, and blessings received, and living life purely. Eddie...Great Write! ~*~

~*~*~*~ Love... ShiVaNi ~*~*~*~

You really have a way of putting your feelings into words. Not everyone can do that. You are gifted.
Be true to yourself. We can't always be what others think we should be. As you might know if you read my bio, that I don't follow the narrow one way road that some people walk. I am me- and I know that God gave me gifts and loves me for who I am, just as he loves you for who you are even if we aren't the crowd followers.
Blessings,
Judith

It can be difficult when you refuse to 'follow the crowd' - you just have to be true to yourself and your principles, regardless of the consequences. Jackie <> <
