Funnel Residue

I used to be

uNcONvEnTeNiAL


I used to be

UNiQuE


Now I be

standard issue


Now I be

a regular guy 
 

Closer to the end

than the beginning


My flame

losing the battle

against relentless

Winter winds 


Compromise

Conformity


Convenient

trade offs

we all do

to get through


In the end

we all fall

into the norm
