You & Me


I know you
as I know you
because they stereotype
you
as they stereotype
you
and inform me
about how to know
you.

They were wrong
about
you.

You understand me
as you understand me
because they assume
me
as they assume
me
and taught you
about how to understand
me.

They were mistaken
about
me.

We know they.

Who is we?

The pronouns, repetition and ending question make this poem a love it or hate it read, but I stand by the points I make in it.  Props go out to Karen for inspiring this one…
