Safety in Conformity

within the box conformity resides
safely within my limit I confine
never to follow uncharted highways
or to stumble on unfamiliar terrain

I know my dreams remain unseen
left forever in my peripheral sight
but not hurt with disappointment
never to embark on any daring feat

I am safe here you see
living in conformity
doing the circle game for eternity
thinking within the box safely
 
within the box ideas may go stale
the same inspiration will prevail
but time is unwasted in ideas uncharted
slow and steady towards greater heights
