One night, I was told

I could be anything

I could fly if I wanted to

No.

It is said that "By striving to do the impossible, man has always achieved what is possible. Those who have cautiously done no more than they believed possible have never taken a single step forward."

Bakunin is wise. Was.

He continues to live on.

LET ME BE 

I'M NOT CRAZY

Conservatives tell me that I should be respectful.

Tradition is meaningless
Aside from the unnecessary sentiments.

They also tell me that I am foolish.

I am, crazy. Perhaps even, psychotic.

Is being for freedom that psychotic?

Maybe I am psychotic.

I love being like this. So,

If you think that telling me I am crazy is going to make me denounce what I stand for

You obviously know nothing about me.

And thus, never will.

Is there something you wanted from me? You think I have anything that would belong to you? You trying to take MY THINGS? WHEN I EARNED THEM? YOU'RE AFTER ME AREN'T YOU?!

Sometimes we are all our own worst enemy, and forgiving others is often even easier than forgiving ourselves. This is such a strong shout out against paranoia and self incrimination. Disappointing ourselves even fighting the demons within , or maybe, an eviction of sorts. Rampant emotion and fury, it's good to get it out in something creative like this. great writing, Powerful!

What I find interesting is how people are interpreting my newer, more disorganized writings. Before I took on this "format", people would almost always get the message that I intended, but now people are forming their own interpretations, aside from what I intended. I will not say that you are wrong in yours, because we all gather our own opinions and interpretations(I'm starting to feel redundant saying interpretation), although you did not exactly see it the way I did while I was writing it. The title is also misleading, as the writing itself has very little to do with what is implied when saying "The Enemy is Myself?". My titles are just becoming strange phrases, and not really reflective of the writing's content itself.

Thank you for your review. It was clearly not half-assed like most of the reviews I see these days.

well, I think you're right, from a readers stand point we must draw our own conclusions about a work. That might be the whole point of poetry, emotion and the interpretation there of by how we relate to it. This could be about a countries unwanted occupation for all I know, but this is how I related to it by my own personal experiences.

Honestly it's about more than just one singular thing. Lately I've been trying to incorporate different things into single works to see how it works. But I won't just blatantly say what I've been doing as a whole, since I feel it would ruin the message. Only one person has really figured it out so far, and I want to see how many more may or may not follow.

What I liked most about this was that you can't just read it once and make sense of it; I seemed to be getting different meanings every time I read it, none of which may be correct but I like that it kept me thinking so much... At first I thought it may have been about gay rights but as I looked closer it seemed like you were talking about the government as a whole and how they try to dictate who we are and classify freedom but coming to the end of the piece, it seemed more personal and directed at someone who made you lose trust not only in them but in humanity... Overall I just enjoyed getting lost in all the possible meanings, rather than finding a single one.

What a yummy review. Thanks.

i like the structure of this because its original and i love the two lines "one night, i was told i could be anything" which is what most people get told when really your own choices depict what you are going to be and "anything" is truly a rather vague word. great job! :)

Subconsciously we either wish to survive or we don’t. If we don’t, then we become self-destructive without realizing it because our conscious mind is the slave of our subconscious desires.

[Akira Kodama]

Hmm. Interesting interpretation.

[Aethereal]

Each of us lives within a survival niche in which we're both predator and prey. A jungle surrounds us. Civilization is camouflage. Think like a panther if you want to be happy.
