How People Are
People are not perfection on a page
A piece that is spontaneous
People are not perfect lines of ink
Flowing smoothly across paper
Like water over the riverbed
Or wind across the surface of clouds
No, people are not like such
People are more like scribbles
More like splashes of paint
Bashed against the canvas relentlessly
Randomly
More like charcoal ground against pages
Thick and thin
Full of emotion and strangely a lack thereof
Like fireworks
A blast of spontaneous color slicing through darkness
Bright and inspirational in a sea of conformity and disillusionment
Each mark will go its own direction
An individual among individuals
Each color carve its path in the bigger picture
Just as important as any
Each smudge and mistake on view to ponder
What happened and when and how
It's true then, I suppose
That people are more like scribbles...
...Complicated
