Blending in to Stick Out

By Ben Fetterman

This current generation
In the age of smart phones and social media,
My generation,
Has becoming obsessed with avoiding anonymity.
They want to be known and loved by all.
So they get the name brand clothes,
Say the popular jokes,
And post the same pictures on their social media.
To try to stand out.
But in the end,
The often blend in.
I,
On the other hand,
Wear what is comfortable,
Which happens to be slightly different.
If you see a name brand,
It’s happenstance,
Not sought out.
And because of this,
Many people who don’t even know me
Can recognize my,
Simply because I don’t
Blend in in an attempt to stick out
