The mythic society

The mythic society exists 
in an unshared unconsciousness
where everyone lives 
fulfilling a role as if preordained, 
except it's the one
they'd have chosen themselves
by heart and brain. And if they decided
to be something else, their personal 
myth would swell and break chains. 
And everyone would accept 
the new role, as our narratives arc
to a lightning skein.
