Non Si Vive Cosi Poem by Ramona Thompson

Non si vive cosi
Can't live like this
No matter how badly you want me to
I just can't be
I refuse to be
The same boring way as you
I'm outragous I know
I like the way that I am
Either you accept it or you don't
Either you love me or you hate me
I offend
So what?
I don't care
Neither should you
Get over it already
There's far worse problems in this messed up world than me
I won't change who I am
I won't adjust
Just to fit into your close-minded little group of fools
I'm destined for bigger and better things
I know it
You know it
We all know it
Jealous and it shows
That's why you try so very hard
Every day
To get me removed from your silly little society of the so called elite
Enough said, fools!
