we enter this world like a drop of water and our parents attempt to channel the flow

we meet up with other drops and the majority pushes us on

in the process we begin to see often the volume destroys what is in it’s path

we decide to make a break for the shore and sort this mess out

we understand the power and strength of the mass as it makes it’s way

but the voices of the others seem to be silenced and swept away

so we decide to be more cautious where we place our drop, preferring not to be another one of the mob

not to say that often the majority is right, but it would seem we could lose a lot if the rest is just pushed aside

perhaps a dam here and there would slow down this flow, and prevent those that disagree from being swept up in the flood

that my friend is why we have the dam, ”the Bill of Rights”
