Usual//Standard//Ordinary

Don't you ever wander
What is usual?
What is standard?
What is ordinary?

Society unlawfully
dictates what  
is ordinary
and what is bizarre
Strange
Peculiar

It is merely based
on the dictation
of the crazy antics of
society

Therefore the term
or rather notion
of normal
does not have
a solid foundation

Why should I follow
The wants
Of others
When I am
Perfectly capable
Of making my own
Decisions

Why should I
Follow their perception
Of life when
I have my own idea

Why should I
Give in to their
Demands
When they don't
Listen to mine

Why can't I
Live my life
According to how
I want

Will I always be
Trapped in a cage
