Key-stone of conformity stays with the banal.
Trite persuasion thinks in formal straight lines.
Break with staid and skin peels back from the mind,
Lets in unrestraint, and stretches credulity.
Breach convention and back-to-front insight
Will violate customary thought, peer squint-eyed
With curiosity and poetic muse
Welcomes, infuses and revitalises
Used well-trodden paths of orthodox views.
Sail out of the usual in oddity's
Sea, and Sphyx-like, greet life less ordinary.
Leave safe-shore solidity, take a sound
Lateral look with mind-set's original
Backsidedness, and feel feet leaving the ground.
