Stomp

Break the mold
Stomp on it
and bury the shards
of the old

Take a new turn
and add a twist
or two
Then double back
creating something
new

Now say goodbye
to the masters
and let them rest
For it's time
to begin anew

This is kind of deep Gary.  I've gone through so many changes, broken so many molds yet onward I go - continuing to break molds, to change and grow.  I like this.

This flowed wonderfully fast!  Like a flash of light changing direction a planned but completely random way.  Inspirational, a "life is what YOU make it" piece.  I enjoyed it thoroughly.  Thanks!

You know this is really a great poem.....not just because of the words of the flow,but the subject....because there are so many differnt ways to take this and interpit it for each person. Can be breaking the moulds of society,breaking your own rules and allowing yourself to change,there are so many things i can see in this poem...it's really wonderful =]

Thanks everyone. This is about not letting yourself become restricted by traditional thought. And it applies to any situation in life, including poetry.
