I always believed conformity was never a virtue
And I accepted an anonymity despite being rebellious
You can say my treatise in anonymity was no pretentious
humility. Too many people in the know knew about me! And
the assumed incognito fell out of the walls to the floor as I aged.
Everyone began to (unspokenly) know, and anonymity was no longer
my disguise. I am much the lyric of troubadours as much
as the unannounced mythic hero that never sought
anyone’s validation, but seemingly reckless with a method
(seeming madness) that mattered. And it was fine that it was unwelcome to
most, most of the time. I was reclusive, but did not seek refuge
from the overwhelming cruelty that besieged me! I didn’t
abscond from the pressures of circumstance! I lived among the
shadows of risky adventures. I didn’t let the weather shape me!
You can see the climate followed my precipitations of will!
I am always unannounced and never matching presumptions.
I see evil as a hollow stump that shouts its own vociferousness
to garner universal sympathy and acknowledgement. Ask me why
all the falsehoods get humanity’s solidarity? Because, brave heroes do
not seek recognition or validation. Those who judged the brave
are morally defunct and dysfunctional. There are people who live
by the means of their resolute courage and there are people who
survive and win by capricious, clandestine treachery. Who besmirches
integrity in misalignments? Who deforms truth by consorting with lies?
The touted Fool deserves victory, but he only emphasises duty!
If you chose to walk with the Empath who exposes his Red Book
with blue ink, so that you all can see the truths, even if it means
he is laid to waste, then you should not fault him for his courage, just
because you are all hopelessly resigned to your misbegotten conveniences! His beauty
is in his duty (without asking for redemption)! Are you shell-shocked
with his truths that you ostracise him for alleged insanity? You ought to begin to
realise that he is a rugged, rough-shod beauty; not the dilettante messiah you
were all looking for!
