Perpetuated myth
of stranger evil,
daggers drawn
for devils in
disguise.
Weird, lurking
creatures, strange of
habit, beware their styles,
their foods, their tongues that lie.
Remember to dissuade
all hope of union,
foreigners fierce,
fulsome
of eye.
Bewail
portents, signs,
curses may befall us,
enlist the guard, pogrom,
genocide. Ensure a culture dies.
Propaganda, stereotypical isolation,
belief that diverse
means
alien,
spy.
Really?
Are we all so
very different?
Two legs, two arms,
One heart, we live, we die.
