Individuals

Crowd is easier to be ruled
Than a bunch of individuals
So the rulers and their fools
Do behave collisional 
Towards anyone who is 
Much too independent 
Rulers flatter and appease
Fools come out resplendent
With their threats and accusations
But the individuals stand
By their own representations 
Truth moves on like shifting sands
On the coastlines where we strolled
When the world was looking grand
And the future wasn’t that small.
