Title: 'Normal'
Fandom: Original Poetry
Rating: G

"Normal" is a straitjacket.

"Normal" is not my racket.

I can never be a nine-to-fiver, complete with spouse and one point some-odd children to my name.

I'm incapable of playing the old, tried-and-true, margarita soccer mom soap opera digest game.

That won't be me.

I just can't see

A way to live the life that others strive for.

That's not the sort of thing that I'm alive for.

So I'll let others live that way, bathing in dusty lies.

I'll let them all wear smiles like some Halloween disguise.

"Normal" is not for me.

See?
