To the Individualist
The mark of a true egoist is rationality and selfishness
You’re not an individualist with blue hair.
It looks great, there’s no hate
But I think you should care
About the truth behind your current state.
By shunning the group, you stand alone.
Be cooperating you know
That esteem can drop like a stone
If your own worth you don’t show.
The top theme for a life
Is one lived on the strength
Of the sharpest knife
And realize that your joy is at mind’s length.
Take into account your last thought.
Remember who you are.
You’re doing what you ought.
Your intellect goes far.
That’s what makes you individualistic.
You know the combination of the two,
It’s your Self and being realistic
That makes you one of the few….

Breath issued from Angelica’s mouth. The weight of the baby put her into her chair. Her curves managed to say she had not been with child the whole time. There seemed to be a fantastic ideal swimming somewhere in her mind about the hazards of caring for two. She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job. No, she told herself, without struggle there is no triumph. She switched on the television set. The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.
