To Alceste

smilingsonneteer:

Dear Alcesteagainstsociety,

I just want to know why
You’re addicted to so much misanthropy?
“You’re most opinionated and conceited”
What can I do to make you more improved
In the way of our society and sense.
“Keep your promise now: dont shrink
From telling me sincerely what you think.”
The fact that you fail to see
The reasons why I follow Misanthropy
Shows that you don’t understand
The many terrible flaws of man.
Because of this irrational demeanor
Trying to explain my reasons would result in failure,
And so I will leave you to ponder my strangeness
Until you open your mind to the world of Alceste
