regardless of the topic
always completing
with a self effacing chuckle
to be eternally nice
and cheerfully accepting
all that life throws at you
is just bland
no alarms and
no surprises here
those who are
compelled to ignore
the humanity of passion
and all it’s forms
rage, hilarity, grief, madness
not to allow them out
not to scream and shout
living a life banal
a life in denial
of life itself
these releases
i allow all my company
as i allow them for myself
i am bored
with the need
to smooth things over
the sensations of passion
the expression of them
is the juice of life
and art itself
vent i say
with as much
colour as you can
let your feelings
be the drive in your song
your chance to belong
amongst us flawed humanity
eschew banality
make a stand, and
banish bland
