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.
