Minorities are the majority
in a time of mass produced philosophies
A person's worth is based upon
their subjective ideology
Absolutes are known to dilute
an individual's thought process
Every man and woman comes along
with their own pocket god or goddess
Presupposed until something grows
on their wealth of opinions
The significance of what someone knows
dissolved into the billions
A rare find is a cliche or clan
joined together by their mindset
Groups of one, always fighting, warring
they’re their party’s only asset
Without a leader to unite
information remains unimportant
Books and poems, down the drain
Only your thoughts are worth it
Of course, everyone has their own thoughts
and their own personal solution
but all everyone’s answers, all they do
is only add to the confusion
Was thinking about Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, and how that can relate to our world today. I realized in some ways it actually contrasts it, and I noticed some people's need to be original, their own individual. That meant the world to some people, the need to have their own opinions about everything, to contrast and to be different. I believe being your own self and not conforming to a sort of standard is important, but this seems to be happening through their individualism. Everyone has different opinions, so its almost like everyone is the same. That's sort of the thought process that went through this. So, like Bradbury, I made what I thought I saw happening into an extreme reality.
