Contest Conformity

Rise up! Be free! Don't fall victim to society's idea of normalcy!

Assemblage of the jury,

here I stand before you,

brooding on the ineffable,

awaiting your execration,

cogitating my next move.

I’m proudly positioned before thee,

as an array of what is me.

I shall not bow before you,

nor reason, bend or break.

I’ll risk my own demise,

before conformity.

Revolt, I say!

Rise up, be free.

May your souls be rid of bigotry.

To blackened hearts, I grant you paint.

Let sunshine rain,

may words flow unbound.

One mustn't be abstemious.

Robotic enslavement awaits you.

Hypnosis will clutch your mind.

A prison will surround us all.

We must stand up and contest.

Rebellion is my choosing,

whether by infantry,

or an army of just me.

Protest I must, protect I will.

Fight for the oblivious, and

demolish the close minded fools.
