Outside

None should have to play dumb for your comfort.
The teethmarks on our tongues are unnumbered.

We’ve always had to play it down for you.
We wrongly reinforced your attitude.

We allowed rule by mediocre tastes.
We donned bushels & let light go to waste.

We let ourselves be bored by dos…more don’ts.
Sadly, we bowed for all you would…more won’t.

We’ll try to use well; our spare attention.
Good necessities bear good inventions.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
