I don't like long journeys
potential decline

Things I don't want to do
I no longer care what other folk think;
at least about me, though still I condemn
the political views that socially stink
or inhibit the rights of minority men.
I don't slave to the zeitgeist or follow the trends
or pretend I am busy and cannot come out
or keep up with people I once thought were friends
I'm upfront with my gender, so eff those who shout.
I'll show that I'm clueless on topics unknown
or stay at a venue that's bad for my head;
won't try to put rules on what you do alone
or police the people with whom you're in bed.
I no longer care about physical things
or solicit attention or fortune it brings.
