Hey.  I finally got to writing again tonight and I wrote this one and another...  I guess I was just thinking about how people think I'm odd because I can express myself.  Anyway, let me know what you think.

THE WORLD HAS CREATED

You laugh because I’m different
I write poems
I play music
I express myself
I am an individual

I laugh because you’re “cool”
The things you do
The way you dress
All manufactured by
The mainstream

I like to be
The me I am
Not the person
That the world
Is trying to
Convert us all to

If you think I’m weird
That’s’ what I want
For it proves to me
That I am not
The image the world
Has created

Individuality can still compete
With the image that
The world has created

If someboy laughs at me, does that make me funny or just plain stupid?
