Remix of Little Brother

This poem seeks to comment on the theme of “changing the definition of normal” in Little Brother. I chose to exhibit concrete differences in the first stanza describing physical opposites where in the second stanza I chose to use abstract opposites to comment on a society that is changed for the better if the definition of normal is altered. In Little Brother, the change of the definition of normal is present in the character of Marcus as well as in the government. Marcus is seen as a different interpretation of a revolutionary whereas the government takes on the role of a different interpretation of terrorists.
