Celebrations of Mediocrity


---------------------
I may hear a sound
A whisper sacred & profound
But turn my head
Indifferent
Taken from I May Know The Word, Natalie Merchant

Celebrations of Mediocrity


This country road
seems to never end,
as houses and trees
pass by without reason.
Time slips past,
where’s the logic?
And yet we find ourselves
celebrating the triteness
of mediocrity.
Celebrating,
to the point
where mediocrity
is exulted,
individuality
is treated as a sin,
and tomorrow
is today,
yet once more.
Circle,
the drum beats on.
Day turns into night,
And our fears
Overcome our sensibility.
The conversation stops
once more. EjG
