Norm Is Not My Name

Norm Is Not My Name


two outs

bottom of the ninth

bases loaded 

three and two count


do this

don’t do that

do it for the kids

do it for god


stifled suffocating 

wanting to soar

wings clipped

trapped


do it because it’s expected 

do it because cool

do it because it’s responsible 

do it because its profitable 


be loyal

be stable

be reliable

be boring


pick up the bat

point to the bleachers 

plant your feet

swing away


swing away

with full force

aim high

aim far


sometimes 

the vessel

must be shattered

to free the spirit
