Defiance

Sometimes
you have
to take a stand
that does not conform
with the norms
of the day
You plant your flag,
fight for your beliefs
even when they go
against the grain,
cause Angst,
transcend the reality
that is being
forced upon you.
You will foster change
in this endeavor
which is vital
to the survival
of your inner being.
