You Say

You say
That he is gay
And you are threatened by it
But why are you threatened?
He poses no threat to you
At least not any more than anyone else does
Is it fear
That perhaps
You are the same?
Or is it because
You are foolish
In your pride?

You say
She is a freak
And you are threatened by it
But why are you threatened?
Is it because
You think that
She understands more?
Or that she is more
Courageous than you are?

They say
You are prejudice
And you are threatened by it
But why are you threatened?
Is it because
You know
They are right?
