Same Difference, Claim Preference Poem by John Sensele

Go wonderful wish
To the society that upon you poured scorn
Assigning to you the fugitive fish foraging in the dish
Where indifference and interference blew the horn

Stressing your status subtraction
In relation to their bloated egos
Proportional to the retraction
Delving deep into crucifix cargoes

Where in their eyes you meant nothing
Despite years of sweat
You poured to etch value in something
That in its travails couldn't vet

Although selective amnesia they embraced
Conveniently erasing your feat
When irrelevance and irreverence they stressed
Till you sank into a puny pit

An unsung nobody
Fed to minute microbes
That forms fifty percent of everybody
I wish legally donned rational robes

When cruelty I leave
On my way home
As trash you sieve
When forever free at home I roam.
