Sheep

People say white sheep are the chosens

Black sheep are the outcasts

Inaccurate

Both are sheep

 

In a breed of

Lawyers, accountants, doctors

The world is only

Black

And

White

Sheep

 

The outcasts

Not sheep at all

A completely different species

An isolated species

I am part of it

I am a writer

 

Instability

Poverty

Insanity

They say are synonyms for this breed

Never-ending combat

Unbearable struggle

Challenge accepted

 

Even if the

Black

And

White

Sheep

Don’t have faith

I cannot change

I am part of this species

Not a sheep

 

It’s not a want

Not a desire

But a state of being

I am not a sheep

That is why I will succeed
