You never leave me alone You dog me every day My conscience You should stop drinking pop You need to exercise more Stop eating meat and eat peanuts instead You need to call you mother and eat supper with her You need to give blood You should get a safer job Clean your floor! Quit being so shy! Get married and make some babies! Volunteer at a food bank Give money to starving kids in Africa Why don't you take a vacation conscience Why don't you leave me alone so I can enjoy some peace But you stay You never leave I can't shut you up Ever! My conscience

About this poem:
I saw a twilight zone episode where this guy is talking to himself in the mirror. The good conscience wins and gets out of the mirror and quits his job as a member of the mob and goes to get a job and a wife.
Your wonderful poem shows a Beautiful Heart!! now a conscience can never/ Beat that!! I too have suffered from the part of the conscience that likes to chastise the mind into doom and gloom... Some Lovely wishes in your Conscience... so all is good!!
Hey brother Mc, great write. I can so relate, sometimes I wish my conscience would take a break and I could just do whatever I please,. Thx for sharing, J
Spartacus2012, thanks for your comment. I have to say my favorite Twilight Zone episode is A Kind of Stopwatch. I like the character who bores everyone.
Joseph1112, thanks for your comment. It would be nice to take a break from the worries, maybe that's why people do drugs. I just watch a lot of tv and listen to a lot of music and comedy. I bought myself a dvd player for my car, enjoy my breaks way more now.
