Looking Beyond The Pale

just a minor rant.

Ugh

How I hate

The world's OCD reaction

To anything different.

 

Wanting to put

Everything

Into neat little boxes

Even if

It doesn't fit.

 

Hello

Life isn't

Just black and white

Rather

Various shades of gray.

 

Offering a diversity

To be embraced

With welcoming arms

By everyone.

 

And yet

It isn't

Which I know

From personal experience

Being disabled

And transgendered.

 

How people look

At a person

Like myself

As they back away.

 

Scared

I'm diseased

Or worse.

Hate small minded people...but like I said hun, it's their problem, not yours..I would just give them the finger x

Sadly, there are more of these type of people, who make up the majority. Thinking, by giving me, their seat, they have done their good deed. Instead of asking me, what I need. It could be, backing up and giving me, some personal space, to breathe.
