Discrimination
Dialectic differences injects bias preferences
Individual qualities overlooked for general stereotypes
Social grades increase to nourish systematic partiality
Contempt towards a people with a different ideology or mindset
Ringing the bell of vengeance towards any slight or honest mistake
Intentional neglect to their needs and serious wants
Minority becoming a classy word and tag for the created second class
Inventing structures to make this an acceptable societal norm
Nauseating on their achievements, development and perseverance
Always attempting a blockade on any stream of their progress
To frustrate their growth and sustain marginalization
In all these, one may seem to succeed and feel quite on top
Over time, reality will prove its point that,
No race, religion, tribe or culture is superior.
