I'm a canary in a cage
a free flying spirit trapped
in ordinary circumstances.
I have no life
to speak about, no
amazing feats
to my name.
I am average.
average life
average speller
average poet. No
extrodinary wisdom
in my words - just opinions
and those few pieces of
intellect
I cling too since there is only
gray left to me.
Gray eyes, hair, personality.
Normal in every sense,
even though I hate the word.

We're all just shades of gray anyway...
