Sanity the norm, crazy if you don't conform
Insanity by vote outsiders just a sour note
snow flakes in a storm six sides is the norm
differences remote, makes you a scapegoat
Differences you see do they set you free
told that you're ill, for variance there's no pill
in regard to variability it's just a matter of degree
Those unlike us leave a chill but are human still

I'll just say i get it, nicely done
Thank you Tobani for the read This one was rather clear glad it came through.
You are very welcome
In all “reality” there is but one race, the Human Race. If we would only learn to love the human, the rest would fall in to place. Nicely done, Soren. Thanks for sharing.
So true I glad that it came through. Thank you so much for the read and poetic support it is always most appreciated
Us and Them is an old game that resurrects every now and again…corporate defence mechanism perhaps?🙏🏻🕊
Human defense mechanism I believe. Thanks so much for the review and words of support my friend
Most welcome dear Soren🙏🏻🕊️
I've tried to con-form, but the limitation is unbearable. Great write, Soren.
Thank you for the read and understanding words of support they are most valued
Indeed. How much difference rattles our bones...and yet, how different are we? In one sense, vastly different. There are entire universes with in people, perhaps multiverses. Yet, in another way, not very different at all. Sometimes we find ourselves having to comply, but I determined a long time ago that I will never conform. I am who I am. Wonderful write, Soren. This one hit home! 🌹👏
Thank you Tristan for your read and understanding comment is is very much appreciated.
You are most welcome, my friend!
A poignant reflection on the tension between conformity and individuality. Well written!!!
Thank you Salvia for your read and observant comment. Yes conformity can be good for society but bad for the individual.
Superb.
Thank you so much for your support Thomas
Fine words soren but for me I look outside the box and see more.
