For Diez Poem by RIC BASTASA

just because
you are not
as normal as we
are does not mean
that you should
be treated
special....

did you not see
how we line
up for our urinals?

humanity is just so
many
the humans, all humans,
rush, and work out
for some space,
sweating it out,
struggling for home
and sacrificing
space and distance

we are crowded too
all normal people
struggling to eke out
for a living

just because you
are "unique" or 'weak"
does not mean
that we give you space
and treat you
like somebody else....
