Black Sheep



Never unnoticed, always noticed,

Like never missing a needle in a haystack.

The eyes turning in them hundreds,

Ogling at me disgruntled.


Yes, the first to be treated absurd!

Because they think I’d run only to the house of dun.

Damn! I rather be me and no one else.


Hanging around with them wolves because beneath is the dark woven,

Looking across them whites, waiting inertly for them rites.


Rites or should i say rights?

Because they think only the upright can get their rights,

Damn right! Maybe the left can become right.


Because I know where my strength is, so I never blend in,

Never to be anyone else, Else I’d dissolve, into the sands of them whites in their way.

Never Seen, Always unseen!

Nah! I am me in a certain way!

It won't hurt if we have 26 options working for us. Who knows, I would land a great paying job. I would be my own boss. But for now, I am a Beauty and Skin Care Consultant.
