In the end,
We come to a crossroad,
A path to conformity,
And a path around the mountain.
The world takes a right,
Goes with what everyone has to say,
And follows what they do.
I take a left,
Beleiving in self aggrandizing glory.
Taking what is normal.
And making it my own.
Changing the world one step at a time.
If being regular means acting like everyone else.
I guess I'll be the one to say no.
Take a chance everyonce and a while.
Most people don't.
So we drag our tails between our feet,
Jumping on the bandwagon,
Only to imagine,
What could have happened.
Who would I have met?
I'll never question my beleifs.
I trusted myself,
The first time round.

Hi, Preston! It appears that you are a man who marches to the beat of his own drum!

Like yourself, I like to walk the road less traveled!

Great poem! Great attitude!

Warm hug ~ big smile!
