Different
by
Christine McGuigan
Thee is a conspiracy
here on this planet
against those of us
who are different.
Some days, "it" is thrown
blatantly in our faces...
some evenings "it"
lingers ever so casually
on the tongues of
those with power & money & "status"
and lurks in the shadows
haunting us, reminding us
That we don't belong.
That we are unwelcome.
That we are different.
