A certain etiquette
Undoubtingly followed
More faith placed than a medle of Gods.
Perhaps this is because of difference in value?
Truly, what is Divinity
When compared to social dogma?
A God can only destroy
The words of peers annhilate
And make one pray to that same deity, for an end.
Unaware of our own faith
To the social rules we bow before,
It is simple to become a shell
Cut down by a few mocking glances.
Please, tell me how you're different.
Explain to me that social status is nothing.
But, why then is it
That you're witholding so much emotion?
You won't tell your neighbor your political views
Blatantly refuse to have an open opinion
Lest you offend another,
And become the dreaded pariah.
