The Tag One Of Our Own

It is nice to live as one to so few known
Where none does say of  you one of our own
Where you are a stranger on every street
And mostly strangers you only do meet

The tag one of our own is a tribal tag
He or she one of our group we salute the same flag
The parochial and patriotic tribalism embrace
Such groupings are plentiful in every race

So lucky are those who think with their own mind
Who some  form of happiness in their own individuality find
Who the praises of flag or Country never do sing
They live in their own way and do their own thing

The  saying one of our own it is used Worldwide
By people imbued with parochial pride
A tag years ago that did apply to me
But now i am happy to be a who is he?
