I'm Not Interested

 I'm Not Interested

An impromptu poem

by Aaron D. Backes

I'm not interested in unsolicited ads. 

I have enough unnecessary life interruptions as it is.

I'm not interested in "liking" social media pages,

especially if the request is from someone I don't interact with.

I'm not interested in duplicating work.

If I fill out a form or submit a form, I'm not re-entering that information again.

I'm not interested in optional surveys.

If something's optional, I usually opt the fuck out of it.

I'm not interested in things that I've never expressed interest in, to begin with.

The more I hear about them, the less likely I will change my mind.

I'm not interested in being expected to settle with being unhappy.

I'd rather pursue things that interest me and give me a reason to smile.

I'm not interested in mindlessly following the crowd.

If I like certain things, I like them. If I don't like them, then I don't. 

I'm not interested in conspiracy theories.

The fact that they're theories tells me everything I need to know about them.

I'm not interested in being rich and famous.

I just want to do what I love, make enough money to live comfortably, and have good people in my life. That's all that really matters, anyway.

I've had ideas for this piece in my head for a few weeks before I finally decided to post them in my blog. Hope you enjoyed it.

Until next time, have a great weekend and don't forget to be kind to one another.
