I have the Frankenstein complex.
People fear what they don’t understand.
They also tend to hate
what they genuinely fear
or are not used to.
*
I have been alienated.
Exiled to dark corners.
To isolation, which makes it worse.
*
It now appears
that I attend dark, sinister séances
and am evil.
All because people don’t understand
that I might love a person, might love another.
