Of An Experienced Life Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Too broad is the living of an experienced life,
Born to adventure and explore the unknown...
To attempt to categorize the living of it,
In one word descriptions to depict.
As if this is required to approve one's acceptance.

And just too confined are those who live,
With wishes to have their values represent...
A proper social etiquette with hopes to convince,
Those who have chosen their spice of life to like...
Regardless of the ones with perceptions to believe,
A quality of life to live is more fulfilled...
If it is censored to be done within set limits.
With a doing to satisfy those who validate and certify.
And too broad is the living of an experienced life,
Of anyone finding it ridiculous...
To seek such restricted evaluations.
