People ask,
But don't want to know.
One word instils suspicion.
That one word,
Just one word,
Makes everybody stare.
They ask about the symbols,
My neck,
My ears,
My naval.
They ask their questions,
And dislike the answers.
I try to explain,
But they never seem to care.
Human beings, so narrow minded.
Oppose anything different or new.
Yet somehow, we remain in charge.
Centuries of violence seem to be all that we know.
If it's different, it dies.
If it might be different, it dies an even worse death.
Just because I believe something different to you,
Doesn't mean I should burn for your fear of a word.

I am constantly asked about the symbols I wear, and then questioned further as to what Wicca is.
I hold no hate towards those who sneer at me. I simply pity them for being so closed minded.
