he told me I was the kind of person to evolve
which isn't scientifically correct
(because evolution occurs over generations)
but that's okay
(because he's an artist, not a scientist)
I'm the kind of person
to grow and develop
(another characteristic of life)
I'm a person to learn from my mistakes
to learn from my past
to know that my choices have consequences
but I'm not going to be politically correct
or societally correct
(I'll be medically correct, but that's a different story)
why won't I conform to others?
to myself?
to the world?
because I always thought to myself
if a revolution should begin
it should begin with
me.
