Pariah
February 19, 2014
I am.
I am the broken, the misfit, the purge-able.
But I am,
In this space, in this time, in this life.
This existence that you and I share.
No less broken or hurt than the other.
Though you speak to our differences,
The differences only eyes can see.
You condemn with those eyes,
And whether to Eden or hell, we shall both fall.
So speak, so look.
Turn that glare upon the face of your fellow man.
And take the hasty actions that you will.
But I will not fall alone.
Be it now or a millennia,
Together we shall rise
Or collapse into the inferno.
