Wrong in Right

I want to scream, shout, and push you to see that I am right.

But through this angry bellow,

Have I not pushed you farther from the truth I know?

I want you to see that my position is standing on the correct side of this fence.

But by drawing this dividing line,

Have I not taken away our chance for recompense?

I want to show you the superior validity of my beliefs.

But as I push my groupthink into your space,

Have I not let all my words, debate, and humanity go to waste?
