Seeking

It was a very normal person,
By normal standards,
Who remarked rather amusedly
At the sight of those
Who would call themselves punk,
About society’s production
Of those who dare the course
Society at large does not deem,
By normal standards,
Normal.

Little was he aware that his
Normality was even more of
A product of society at large.

Society, by normal standards,
Has failed through its
Lack of unity,
Its diversification, and
Factional division:
It has failed in its normal
Standards.
Society fails to provide,
For the individuals who comprise it,
Identity.

Society having failed them,
They must seek their own.
The normal man, by normal standards,
Hides his lack of identity behind
His normality:
The punk hides his normality
Behind his lack of identity.

But both are the same.
And at least with something,
Both may identify.
