This prompt is rather difficult
Which isn’t a bad thing –
To be a different person
I find hard imagining
The wording implies categories
People like to use:
With gender, species, generation
Among those to choose
But — I think I’ll pick
Another type of attribute —
And I hope that you won’t think
I took a dodgy route
For twelve months I would like to be
Somebody less obsessive;
Who could enjoy the things of life
Without being excessive
Who would not write twelve hundred poems
Just to scratch an itch:
Who could miss Daily Posts without
Developing a twitch
I’d love to have a whole new skin
There’s much I think I’d gain:
If I had soul integrity
And I was less
Insane

Very nice poem.
I love it. 🙂
This is an incredible photo. In spite of the fact that I had to look up subsessive, I appreciate both the art and the poem But, we can’t find the word subsessive anywhere! Could you furnish a definition, please? I love the poem by the way. Brother!!!
I made up the word – unless someone best me to it – to mean “less obsessive”.
Have you really written 1200 poems?
It’s twice that now, but yes.
