Since The Majority Of Me - Philip Larkin
Since the majority of me Rejects the majority of you, Debating ends forwith, and we Divide. And sure of what to do
We disinfect new blocks of days For our majorities to rent With unshared friends and unwalked ways, But silence too is eloquent:
A silence of minorities That, unopposed at last, return Each night with cancelled promises They want renewed. They never learn.
