Until now we still stand alone,

Misunderstood and misjudged.

Men like me are not favorites

To anyone seeking allegiance.

Not good enough for the skeptics;

Not worthy before the believers.

These they say we should not do;

Not believing all;

Not doubting all.

And they keep asking us;

“What is it you seek

Believing and not believing

With such equal degree of indifference?”

And I like to answer them this;

“What have we done now

That any man should freely not do?

Living for selective reasons

And taking cheap chances;

Fighting for our parts

Where our strengths can win;

And wishing and praying

For unmerited fortunes and advantages?

Are we all not the same opportunists

Fighting for places

In different approaches,

Judging and partaking

When we can justify?”
