from your conforms, friends, families and religion
peers, teachers, students, husbands and wives,
parents, children, expectations and limitations,
responsibilities, careers, spelling, fitting in, not fitting in,
wonderful original individual you ARE

get up on a pedestal and DANCE
in front of everyone to a rhythm of your own
take a deep breath, fill your lungs and SING
off key for everyone to hear
bear all, naked, exposed,
raw to the bone
with only the flame of your soul aglow

Run, feel the wind as it dances
through the tresses of your hair
sit in the cool shade of a wonderfully green tree
Walk, pick up the earth
scattering handfuls around you
Drink, be quenched from a cool clear stream
cleanse your soul

LiVE!

About this poem:

I spent most of last night tossing and turning for no apparent reason and these words all just came to me i knew I wouldn't close an eye till i put them all together. I went to sleep and woke up this morning forgetting about the poem until i arrived at work.

I was filled with a "knowing" that I had to share this poem.

So i did!

hmm. yes they can be quite feisty.
btw you still did not answer my original question.
koalacabra?
are they supposed to be some mythical creature which came out as a result of mating between chupacabras and koala bears?

actually its not that weird to be wearing a sheet and carrying an urn of water.
i can imagine myself like that.🙂
but the pink frog is like a psychadelic display thing. i don't know why a kind of hippy image is generated in my mind when i think of it.
