Assume nothing

Yes, of course we should not assume
But human nature seems otherwise
Preconceptions heavy in the air
Permeates the pores, heavy with images
From days past, carried over to the present

These are women, men, and those in between
A whole spectrum, a rainbow of colours
Myriad, encompassing so many
A variety, a conundrum
Against the norm, prejudices

Pioneers in a way
Blazing open a path
For others to follow
So many do it their way
Despite the odds
To stay true to themselves

Despite what happened
Despite what the future may bring
They are among us
They have made a choice
Rejoice

It is a celebration
The multi-faceted man
