I think I have a hankering for things both rich and strange
To the degree that anything I love requires a change
From normalcy into a state you might consider odd
Or simply having no real weight upon the native sod
Of humankind–that is, not kin to mortals and their sort–
And if you find my life herein just makes you give a snort
Of disbelief (maybe disdain), I’ll not call it affront,
But pity you the sad refrain of living such a blunt
And circumscribed existence as mere ‘normalcy’ implies,
While I, adorned in fairy dust, take to the endless skies.
