i stand out
in any room
like the only exception
to any rule.
i recklessly disobey
the sciences,
math,
and art.
i stand apart
like every wobbly word
in a sentence
that lives
in a secondhand copy
of a book.
i am not easy to look for
in a room
full of talent, though.
i h i d e
between the pauses
in a conversation that
i shouldn't be interrupting.
when you talk about
art
and love
and life
all I'd like to do
is
hide.
besides,
i could never belong
in the same sentence
as any of the great artists
that you talk about.
so i stick to the walls
i line the sidelines
with a fraction of my presence
- one thirds of me
simmering away at
the bottom of the sink.
i think I'm the only exception
to a world-wide rule.

This isn't from a me perspective. I am not like this. This is ugach random piece of poetry(?).
