The S****y View From The Bottom of a Port-A-Loo

define myself? 

oh no thank you 

I wish to 

kindly 

staunchly

lovingly 

refuse 

tell me please

why 

should I ever wish to 

define myself 

and in doing so 

contain 

box 

mould and set 

myself into 

something, someone 

who I move away 

from with 

each passing moment

(it’s called evolving)

surely if I say

I am he, she, this or that

you will arrive on my doorstep 

with preconceived 

ideologies of 

who, what, when, why and how 

I should be acting 

no thank you 

there are already 

too many narrow-minded,

blind to reality, 

folk in this world 

I don’t want none

knockin’ on my door late at night

preachin' at me the many layers 

of how not to live side by side 

and how not to be in love with 

all in existence

oh dear 

not only do 

I find myself yawning 

at the very concept 

of self-definition 

purely out of 

boredom's sake 

I also quite honestly feel 

it is a mix of 

three day old

human faeces 

found at the 

bottom of an 

unkempt port-a-loo

S**T! 

yes it’s all s**t!

the faeces no longer needed

cast out 

expelled 

S**T remains - -

we move on 

my goal has never been 

to see the view from 

the bottom of a port-a-loo 

stale and

stagnant -

- is self definition

find me 

in the river 

you know the one 

past all definition 

I shall be 

floating 

formless 

free 

jump in

[KWP]

Hey Gorgeous Julie ... Always lovely to see your beautiful smile pop up, thanks for your words too ... Much love X

[Tech]

Seems like someone really peeved you off lol but it made for a real strong piece. It really is a shame that people can bring us to a point of questioning life and the others around us in such a... well somewhat negative way. But it does do us all well to make sure we understand that some people as you would probably say are shitters lol. Thank you for another strong and emotional poem.

[KWP]

Actually no one pissed me off... I was just thinking about self- definition and how I don't ever wish to you know slot myself into one spot without escape ... We are constantly changing ... We should never forget that ... :-) thank you for reading ... Hope all is well well well X

[Tech]

Well I am even more impressed that you got all that emotion into this piece then :).

[Gee]

My pleasure,I AM A MERMAN,(not to be confused with a German,big difference....pssssst, most of 'em seem proper grumpy)Often emerge from the English Channel covered in loo roll,nappies and used tampons.....not the cleanest waters !!

[KWP]

oh how delightful to meet a real live merman .... who is not german ... and like to swim i dirty seas ... but always comes up smilin' and goggling with glee ... :D X

[wordman]

i guess people will always try to change you,be like them,do what they do,i think it`s fear
they want to control how you think and feel,you base a relationship on who you really are
love me the way i am

[KWP]

and I do ... love you just the way you are ... you know that right BF?

[wordman]

i am happy as a dead pig in the sunshine having you as my girlfriend..

[KWP]

hahahahahaha - we can bask together ...

[jacob erin-cilberto]

"don't try to change me or rearrange me, to satisfy the selfishness in you, i'm not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day, and i'm not a pawn to be told how to move"
(turtles)

yes, it is all crap, when people try to fit us into their box...we become stale and stagnant unless we get to be ourselves and evolve.

nicely said, with some quirky sarcasm mixed in.

[KWP]

:) heyyyyy Jacob, I do so appreciate you reading my random thoughts and shuffling them over and making perfect sense ... thank you ... hope your day is fiiinnnnneeeee X
