Myself

All I’m known for is indignancey
 
Unilaterally, that’s all I guess.
 
Dilated perceptions since infancy
 
Righteous soap box preaching to brick walls at best.
 
Even though the rest, my peers, won’t see bigotry,
 
Youth is all the time I have to set man free.
 
Leaving my obvious role, it having shined,
 
A deeper probe shows a lonesome life.
 
Under that, a promising mind,
 
Gravely refusing the destiny of “wife”.
 
Happy instead to help those left behind,
 
Really striving to perceive man beyond first sight.
 
Every cent I forsake, not due to kindness,
 
Yanking cloth of pockets for causes is right.

(2014)

This is a simple acrostic poem describing my perceived role in society.
