'Juggernot'

A Poem by Pete
"

Be yourself- not your idea of what you think somebody else's idea of yourself should be. - Thoreau

"
Image result for going your own way

Undercover.
Going for the jugular.
Conformity drinks a slow death fizz and pisses a bankrupt biz.
Battles won.
Wars fought.
A barrage of bodacious bouquets scattered and caught.
Truth's tired lessons voraciously taught.
Melees and brouhahas.
Shouting their perverted "Ooh La La's".
The mob rules.
Like a bunch of fickle fools.
Mumbling treason and thinking aloud.
"Should I go along with the crowd?"
After all, they think my soul's been bought.
But I don't like their open-and-shut plot.
I'll run far away from this tainted, twisted ...
... 'juggernot' ...

Author's Note

Pete
"If you want peace with others, don’t fight them. Go your own way. Live your own life. If some walk with you, fine. If you walk alone for awhile, fine. If you don’t like what’s going on somewhere, leave. Maintain a portable paradise within yourself." - Peter McWilliams
