be a rebel

be a rebel
if that's what
you're meant to be
let no one tread
upon your reverie
if writing's
in your bones
i pray don't leave
those precious
words alone

don't listen
to others
o u g h t s  
and s h o u l d s
when they are meant
for another's good
if you've a talent
develop it much
and be sure to give it
your own special touch
