Contradiction


What is it about us humans, 
That we treasure the opportunity 
 To collect that which is rare
 (Like waiting for this light to turn red 
When it mostly glows white) 
Yet are so quick to demonize 
Whichever folks are rarest 
In our communities; 
To pound down whichever nails 
Appear to stick up or stand out?
