Eccentricity Isn’t Craziness, It’s Daring
Eccentricity isn ‘t craziness, it’s daring
To the -enth degree:
A caring not what they decree,
Not caring what they think of me.
The unconventional disarming,
Often charming -
What is normal?
Living life like all the rest,
I guess accepting colorlessness.
Planets are eccentric
And the sun’s just doing fine.
It shines on planetary quirks,
Sustains the quirk so that it works.
So,
We too can be a sun;
No planet going round,
No moon, but one
Unusual, bright son-of-a gun
Who does his ‘thing’ because it is
The only thing that makes things run,
The only thing that makes life fun
The misfit may not be a genius,
May be middling or bizarre.
Having said that, I give honor
To the one who does his thing
Since he sees through
The illusion, the delusion, the chimère .
