Original


I am original like everyone else

One of John Green's "unique" characters

Piled up on the shelf

 

We live in an age where conformity

Is sticking out, what a lark!

 

I cannot dream of the calamity

If we all were obsessed with a spark

 

A light of eccentricity

A blog in the night

Some weird hair dye

Or a cause to fight

 

We are all rebelling

By refusing to stick in

We are original characters 

and each others' twin
