Perpetuating Unawareness

Instead of listening to what I have to say,
Many may become distracted by the stigma,
Of the label(s) they know or assume I have,
Of the credentials I do NOT appear to have,
Of the “group” I appear to be a part of,

Instead of listening to what I have to say,
Many others may focus on a category I fall under that’s been created on the surface,
Which will of course,
Add to perpetuating unawareness that does not seek to deepen beneath the surface
