THE INDIVIDUAL EXPLOSION~

A Villanelle poem

Growth is a pathway to maturity,
We follow learning many rules until,
Our thoughts explode into individuality.

Happy to follow, learning gradually.
Working the accepted patterns still
Growth is a pathway to maturity.

Our learning is our makeup and mentality,
Pushing the frontiers of our own free will
Our thoughts explode into individuality.

Brushing aside all thought of insecurity
We gradually ascend the learning hill,
Growth is a pathway to maturity.

Finding a way with our learnt rationality
The facts we soak up then distill,
Our thoughts explode into individuality.

We overcome the bounds of immaturity,
Each step we take to learn another skill,
Growth is a pathway to maturity
Our thoughts explode into individuality.
