following the crowd

how do birds
know
which way
the flock will
turn. it's beyond
reason
how this crowd
of gulls
or sparrows
rise and fall
in rhythm.
are we too
of one mind set,
following
unknowingly
the crowd?
you see it
in fashion,
or flavor,
what's
believed to be
true or
false, almost
all giving chase
in that direction,
only the genius
few refuse,
and they are left
outside
the maddening
crowd.
