Unconventional And Misunderstood A Poem


Unconventional
That is the word for me.
I am not like other people
In a whole host of categories.

I don't belong
To many groups.
I for the most part
Keep to myself.

I don't want to open
Myself up
For judgement
And ridicule.
I am not a fan
Of the comedy
Of Don Rickles.
Although I hear
He was a good friend
To those he knew well.

Folks that get to know me
Once I let my guard down
They either love me
For my foibles
And naivety.
I ask many questions
Some answers may be
Obvious to most
But I sometimes miss
The contemporary boat.
Culture can be a devil
To keep up with
With modern day
Social media.

There are things
I am not proud of
That make me feel
So very inferior
But I should not have to
Wear that label
Hence the word
I would rather
Be associated with
Unconventional.

I need self confidence
Because while I know
I don't fit the mold
Of a successful woman.
I should take hold
Of the fact
That I may always
Be misunderstood
By folks that are less
Than open minded
And only care
About the superficial.

i show them what i want them to see
yet
they only see what they want to see
better
to show them what i show them
in truth
they will only see what they want to see
must be
my reality and your reality
is
a separate reality

there is a world of difference between insanity and stupidity

The culture club isn't so exclusive.
I am not exactly a member myself.
It takes a lot but doesn't really give.
Unconventional brings good health.
