Either be accepted
or be exiled
no other choice
is open.  They have
the power and the means
you can't beat them
they are too strong
they are everywhere
they will hunt you down
some time , somehow--

though I'm alone
and weak
without a single ally
to them I won't cow.

' Big Brother' -the role
they claim.  Either I'm in
or out. But I'm no one's tool
or fool. Their rancour I've incurred
and I'm exiled never to be accepted into society again. They mock while I wriggle in pain.

But I survive. Without them I thrive. What exile?
