Conformity does not Comfort Me

Conformity does not comfort me									
Its friendly friends											
with clown smiles,											
beware of the guile,											
beware of the bile.

Rambling repertoire 											
from a mouth of an asp,										
subject matter												 
I just cannot grasp.											
If following along											 
is the mission of most,											
I cannot dance												 
and sing as the host. 
									
The wolf on the lone path										
the eagle soaring high											
picket signs against tear gas										
having the snow leopards eye.

I will stand in solidarity  										 
these resolute individualists										
the nature of their souls										
has no conformity.
