Stark Difference

Stark Difference
1/14/10

People become jaded, complacent,
by adapting furrowed brain
into routine programmed thinking
until nothing is new,
all has been compartmentalized,
becoming dull, gray, humdrum,
asleep to questioning reality
investigating one's life further
than nose on face,
our relationships get set,
packed full of expectations
encapsulating each in mundane
not wanting any disruptions,
wishing conformity, it's security,
without vulnerably standing out
easier to cut down
if views run contrary
to normal societal interface,
but Mystery's a trickster
inevitably arranging opportune awakening
where attitudes, images, opinions,
beliefs, are provoked, challenged,
because of alternative experiences
whenever people who endeavor
respond in unique way,
more from soul, spirit, 
instead of confused ego,
so pathetic, blatantly inadequate,
standing in stark difference.
