Conformity and Rebellion- Rhoman James

Rebellion Sailors, chanters and politicians Proselytize our new dimensions Warriors, weavers and priest-drawn blood Sanctify our new haven. The sun comes up We chop wood Toolerize and gamify our fun Still the same man under the same sun. And for millennia The new is suppressed Marked as devilry To keep us meek. Feeling crazy today Going to have my say But first I'll impregnate The Chief's chief lay. This poem is referencing how in our society we follow all of these rules set by certain people, we try to make it fun so that it isn't so tedious and unbearable but we have to do it. He said that "the new is suppressed" because when the younger generations try to do something different in our society, the traditional leaders tend to shoot that down very fast. They consider these revelations "devilry" and they outlaw these actions. The author does a very good job addressing the many variables that contribute to our conformation.
