Does it really matter
who likes you
and who doesn’t?
Does it really matter
those who are jealous?
Doesn’t really matter —
those who are silent
who lurk in dark corners
Who don’t want others
to succeed
Does it really matter
to be surrounded by people
who don’t understand
the meaning of the word
genuine depth
Does it really matter
to be surrounded by people
who are not altruistic
Does it really matter
everyone has their own unique
characteristics an individual idiosyncratic
personality — their own methodology
of living their own life
It’s not about everyone else
there will be people above
there will be people below
The only consequence
is to do what’s right for you
to do what’s right for me
To comprehend people will literally
want to do nothing but rip off my shiny
glitter wings – permanent sparkle
never fades
The core of an underdog
will never dissipate in a world
of naysayers
It is the underdogs
who are the survivors
in this world
Who are the innovators
who are able to breathe
who are aware that brain pathways
house the capacity to transform
in a millisecond
Only if a willing participant
is able to understand
Otherwise, what’s the point?
History cannot be re-written
it could never be
the only thing that can be etched
is the future one that could
render oblivion and bliss
simultaneously
The body wakes the spirit
the purpose of life
is not to be better than others
or to try and manipulate
The purpose of life
is to learn to establish
who you are, ownership
of a concrete essence
Those who do not understand
will be frightened of you
Those who hide will not understand
why you fight so hard
Those who are ostriches
hide their head in the sand
Who would rather others speak
I can appreciate being an introvert
I cannot appreciate being a coward
as that is the path that I choose
to not travel
The past is of no consequence
future days of new reign
in absence of bitter
decay
The bones buried in the cemeteries
bury your dead
Know, regardless
of how many bad decisions
are made in life
It is inconsequential
a pathway to choose
a better life
to turn on a dime
To allow the Alice in wonderland walrus
that falls on your path to simply be
and veer to the left
Sometimes going through
is not the only way
Sometimes it is depends
on where your adversity
will take you
