Oh, look at them frolic!
Skipping in the sun,
Heads held high,
They dance with jive.
All, but one.
He is different, you see?
The odd one out,
The loner;
Watching—
Where no light may reach,
Where no one can discover
That unusual twinkle,
That peculiar flicker,
As the light fades
To nothing,
But a glimmer.
