“If No One Comes, Walk Alone (A Sonnet) If no one comes hearing your call - walk alone, For the price of rigidity is greater than the cost of a fall. If no one comes hearing your call - speak alone, For the price of silence is greater than the cost of a scorn. If no one comes hearing your call - reason alone, For the price of prejudice is greater than the cost of loneliness. If no one comes hearing your call - think alone, For the price of bigotry is greater than the cost of feeling groundless. If no one comes hearing your call - dream alone, For the price of conformity is greater than the cost of failure. If no one comes hearing your call - act alone, For the price of inaction is greater than the cost of alleged misdemeanor. If no one comes hearing your call, o brave titan - carry the society on your own, For peace, progress and harmony are caused by the acts of the one alone.”
