A pair of legs
Highly functional arms and hands
Compatible genetic code programming
Identical navigational map
Footprints impressed on crowded crossroads

Anatomy works the same
I am a member of this collective
What affects this place affects me
Yet I never truly fit in
Never will

I would have to regress to
A different womb altogether
To even stand a chance
Why am I here?
Where I am so easily identifiable

Am I to blame?
For being so easily seduced
By progress and arousing visuals?
Things so underdeveloped back in the homeland
For my selective and overtly ambitious mind

I am hopeless at translating the verbal
But the corporal is second nature
Evident in their fleeting glances
Even more so in their longing for one
"You are tolerated but not integrated."
