Price of Individuality ~ Notes Above Ground - Travels of a writer, poet, expatriate living and working abroad.

Price of Individuality

What price to pay, the freedom of individuality?
Being unique is almost a crime,
Barbie dolls come out of the factory,
The same mold, different colors
The same bust, the same height, the same makeup
The same clothes
The perfect image of an ‘ideal’ woman.
Girls sitting in a noisy café
Wear almost the same t-shirts and jeans
The same cut, the same style,
the same,
the same,
the same.
Did they come out of the factory too?
The factory of society.
Any deviation from the ‘norm’ will be discarded.
Rejected
Shuned
Outcasted
The price of individuality.
