The Cream

In every choir
there is one singer not singing;
every march
the one soul out of step;
with all smiling
there is the one who does not;
for every agreement
the lone dissenter,
the outlaw
the renegade
the outlier
the one who says no
and doesn't budge
or waiver.
Cherish this
looking--away face;
the singer in the different octave,
the voice
not so loud
but persistent
which does not waiver.
In it's singularity-
sometimes it is the voice of the Ideals
sometimes poorly expressed but most
times it is the voice
of democracy
of science,
of progress.
Sometimes is the intonation of Hope,
the Face of Faith
the greatness
of the Human Race;
forging steely dreams
against the odds.
The secret
of genius
I think
is often
the soul which does not waiver
making it way
to the top
to eventually
become
the Cream.
