Deliver Thee from Conformity
I apologize in advance,
For my perspective shall offend thee;
And, I apologize in advance
For the lack of sincerity in my apology
Shall offend thee as well.
My perspective already censored
Is unable to withstand further censorship;
But, I apologize in advance
If I fail to censor my perspective
To such a degree that it is non-existent;
And, unrecognizable as my own
Which might render me worthy of your friendship.
Therefore, I apologize in advance
For I am sure to offend thee
As conformity has no appeal to me.
So, I once again offend thee
As I respectfully decline thee
In the name of individuality;
And, I must once again apologize
For being me.
