Carving My Own Path

Listen!
I do not intend to burst your bubble
But
You are wasting your time
Trying to slot me into your categories
Or attempt to define me along with someone
You have found a comfort in relating to
I am carving my own path
This is 'my' territory
And there is not a category you can create
To put a name on it
Unless it is Pertillarisms

So don't give me suggestions as to how to do
What I am doing
If I knew that myself
I may be more open to your remarks
But as for now
I'm innovating
