Drawing a Picture of Myself

You tell me who I am…
You tell me where to go!

I tell you what I think
And you tell me, “NO!

“Reality will grind you!
“Reality define you!
“Reality will show you!
“How wrong you really are!”

“You are heading for disaster!
“You are heading for a fall!
“You are heading for big failure!
“smashed against The Wall!”

“You are NOT!” you scream redfaced,
“what these beliefs are that you hold!”
“Yes I AM!” I howl in triumph!
Not accepting what I’m told.

And the chants of who ‘you” say I AM
Through howling winds of freedom’s gale,
blissfully are drowned out
and I rise above the veil.

“Yes I AM,” flows out from me
Onto a canvas filled with light.
And to rhythmic shocks of rock and roll,
I draw on wings for flight.
