THEM

We are polarized, so many of us,
"Looking through a glass darkly"
Wanting only what WE want,
Not caring-nor sharing-with them.
The wealth and fancy automobiles
Whisk us through garbage strewn 
City streets, tucked behind tinted glass;
We are safe from them, they cannot see.
But who really is invisible, us or them?
Who should we really fear, them, or us?
Soon, we will become them, then what?
