Everyone doesn't know the truth.
Everyone doesn't care.
Everyone doesn't love that movie or that book.
Everyone isn't coming,
or voting, or marching,
or fighting, or surrendering.
Everyone isn't sick or well.
Everyone isn't doing it.
Everyone isn't anyone,
and anyone with any sense
doesn't believe
what everyone is saying.
Everyone is not to be trusted.
Everyone is not to be followed.
Anyone who's everyone
has given in too easily,
and their voice is drowned out
by the sound of everyone's buzzing,
like a solitary bee
deep within the hive.
