&quot;Everyone is different, it&#039;s the natural state- it&#039;s the facts, it&#039;s plain to see. The world&#039;s gray enough without making it worse. What we need is individuality!&quot;<br /> - Billy Elliot&#039;s &quot;Expressing Yourself&quot;

He looks at me.
I look back.
I look away.
I can see him through the corner of my eye-
He’s watching me.
I turn away.
He moves a little closer,
Eying me like a dingo eyes a baby kangaroo
Before it strikes.
