Less Trodden.
Key-stone of much conformity
hides in banality while
trite persuasion phrases straight
formalized lines.
Break with staid and difference
will strip tightly laced
to let in un-restraint and stretch
mere credulity.
Breach convention, invite insight,
then watch back-to-front
scribing turn mental somersaults
to violate customary.
Peer squint-eyed, allow curiosity
to welcome the Muse
revitalize by refusing an orthodox
commonplace pathway.
Sail out of a usual bathe in oddity
find rarer anomaly,
peruse free-style then decide on
being non-ordinary.
Leave safe-shore solidity, sound
down with the lateral,
adopt mind-sets of dissimilarity
and leave norm bound.
Twist to seeing back-sidedness
verse the non-profound,
think more about quirky and less
around the accepted. .
Keeping an ear close to authentic
reveals originality yet
less trodden adds its own flavour
to what is poetic.
