the sum of liberty

normalcy,
once so alien
prodded aside
with the longest yardstick
and the snootiest sniff

metamorphosing
into something warm
and infinitely curious


golden limbs
scraggly hair
schlumpy clothes
never seemed so,
dare i say it -
attractive

normalcy,
used to be 
trampled upon
face smashed into earth
common as dirt

in its crudeness
mundanity
provinciality 
simple-mindedness,
the saplings of
happiness
are young
and possible

the veneers
of hedonism
nihilism
perfectionism 
narcissism 
self pity
self hate
self indulgence 
flash
bang
sound
fury
blah blah blah
shall wither
against the bright sunlight
of the unbridled youth
in all his possible happiness

pray for it, to touch you.
