    as if you would accept me as is

    selective inclusiveness i know well

    i am a loner in a lonely world

    dodging the posers and politicians

    dreaming of a viable buffer zone


    from freedom of speech for the ones

    who don't cross imaginary lines

    of standardized political correctness

    and even playing fields where

    the emotional needy make the rules


    there is no land of the free

    it is a myth devised by those

    who keep the masses asleep

    and the fringe incarcerated

    out of the sight of normalcy


    i will pretend to play by the rules

    but you will never lull me

    into a state of meek acceptance

    of the unconsciousness of many

    evolution is driven by the few


    testicular fortitude dissolved

    into desultorious displays of impotence

    rebels are again without a cause

    chasing fashionable protestations

    and intoxicated celebration of self


    wake me when the revolution is over

    i am too disillusioned to raise my voice

    in support of our vacuous leaders

    who at the smell of fame, fortune, or a fight

    move on to greener pastures
