Ask not for the man who complies
Ask not for the yes man, no ma'am
(Thank you, Sam!)
Ask not for the things that aren't there.
Ask not for a co-conspirator in your plots
This heart stands a Judas to all you love,
This heart in your path.
Traitor to your cherished values,
He stands.
He isn't an anarchist,
antisocial,
anti-Christ.
He simply seeks his own mountain to climb, his own podium from which
To make his own speech. This man seeks not to echo the words you have long repeated yourselves; he wants to write his own. Splatter the ink on the scroll of his mind and the manuscript of his heart.
No danger, this one just seeks to exist; he does not seek to seperate, but to be unique; not to sever entirely, but to individuate from the whole.
He seeks his own singularity...
He seeks himself.
He simply is, "A man unto himself".
He simply is.

This is impressive work, it almost seems historic if you know what I mean. And I really liked how it ended.
