I think bias is ingrained in humans. No one can escape it. Personally, I have to deal with bias all the time. Between being disabled, being goth, and being queer, a lot of people make assumptions about me.
Bias can transform
An ordinary opinion
To one that favors in the defense of another.
Bias can change
How groups of people may feel
If it is directed towards or against them.
Bias is a weapon
I open my eyes,
Seeing a barely knit community,
Everyone ignoring those who they pass,
Going only to those they relate to,
