I Am Choice C

the place
where we
are at,
the place
we have worked
to get to...

is a place where
the options are
laid out before
us...

Choice A...
or Choice B...

and then...
there is choice C...

Choice C is "other"...
"none of the above"

I am choice C...

My choice, my plan,
doesnt fit into A or B,
it is not one of the A or B choices...

I am not the only one
who is a choice C,
but we are a rare kind...

I am choice C,
I am "other",
I am "none of the above"...

 its different,
 not as neatly laid out
as A or B...

it is the path less traveled by...
the path that can be
lonely sometimes,
the path sometimes
walked alone...

yet...
it is the path
I am walking on,
the one I have chosen,
and I won't willingly turn
from it.

I am proud to
be "other."
