The conflict

Be yourself they say
damn hypocrites
what’s the definition for that
it’s funny(not),
laughter burns my belly
nasty business
of being out there

It’s all okay,you see
as long as you are you,
limited to conditions
stipulations, and then some

Ask them
they will tell you,
mould you,
construct you,
at any chance given
to the person you are “supposed” to be

Such lucid conceit
riles up my soul
it ain’t taking no beating anymore
I want to be real as my soul allows
as real as I could possibly be

No soul is for sale
You are not an image
Perfection be damned.
Let’s get real!
