Let Me Fly

You all are incredible
absolutely astounding creatures
of nonsensical logic

Self-centered

to say the least

Yes, dear

this has no form

it is completely
"grabbled"

Think you that I cannot write with style,
Or box myself inside a structured hell?
Must I exist in these boards as an exile,
A slave to the imperfections you know so well?

Or maybe it is you who are enslaved,
Locked inside your awkward rhymes.
Too coward to see the freedom to be braved
On the outside of fractured lines.

I be brave, Massah
I be true
And when da gloreh comes
It wont be to you.

You with your uniformed lines of bile
Your conformists and closed-minded spewing at the mouth
You're almost as dirty as a televangelist
And a hundred times more the hypocrite

Who ARE YOU
Who ARE YOU I say
To wrap your filthy arms around me
To hold me tight against you
And try to mold me to your ugliness
Touch me not, wretched gutter rat
Filthy whore... skulking in the sewers
Hoping to catch your own piece of the limelight
All hell should break loose if anyone should discover

You're not so smart afterall.

I am not to be confined among one
small
straight

optical illusion

I--- I
f
l
o
. w

wherever I wish

and I dare you

to even presume
that you are worthy
of clipping my wings

God, you are not

Therefore shut your abysmal holes
and let me fly.

Alright, before you all get your feathers in a tizzy this was written in and to an entirely different forum and was not, in any way, directed towards any patron of AD. It just tickled mah fancy so here it is.
