Sheepish

A black sheep in a family of black sheep

the white sheep is the outlier

in that way more a black sheep than they.

Yet goofy otherworldliness reckons

not a sheep at all as sheep follow

rather than buck trends so not a sheep.

—

A quandary of misdirection, no connection,

except this section lately focused on mortality

an abnormality so young, glum features

definitely not a sheep, pulling wool, not cool

despair pools, where is goofy? No proof.

 

Still an outlier, but bipedally so.
