Here's to the people
who don't tease the girl
whose forehead is slightly bigger
whose teeth rest silently on her lip
preventing anything from being said
in her defense
as she buries her slightly upturned nose into her favourite book
seemingly to get away from the reality
of the insensitivity of some
Here's to the people
who wonder what others thoughts are
when there are spaces that grow between their sentences
when they can't express what they want to say
because their thoughts are far too complex
for the narrow mind to understand
Here's to the people
who see through the ambiguity
and the perceived eccentricity
and create art with their minds
