Analysis of My Idiosyncrasies



My idiosyncrasies
Is what some people think of me,
Because they can't explain my ways
And probable think I'm in a haze.

I'm sure that I confuse
The ones who often choose
To judge those not the same
And do not play their game!

I'm glad I'm different
Despite the words they've sent,
Because I won't condemn
Or wine and be like them!
