In conformity
15 December 2017
Head bows not
In irreverence
Chest inhales
Flying whales
The din from my stomach drives
Sound of million lives
Beehives rise
Where the sun sets meek
Other cheek
Offered weak
Learning new phrases to speak
Puzzle of the crowd
Chatter loud
Rebel lash smothered
Blackened out
Whitewashed in
The rules ice on water thin
In conformity
Reading of the poem:
Paul Mauriat – Love is Blue (1968)
Mason Williams – Classical gas ( Original Early 1968 Footage – Without Beard)
Bobbie Gentry – Ode To Billie Joe
