Bias can transform
An ordinary opinion
To one that favors in the defense of another.
Bias can change
How groups of people may feel
If it is directed towards or against them.
Bias is a weapon
Can be used with care
Can deal blows to identity
Can harm, hurt or share.
Posted in response to the challenge Bias.
Duet
starting together ending together
weaving around each other's sound
adapting tuning
instinctively fitting into the tone
the way we want to do this
the contrast
played so perfectly
The agony of the human race
simple creatures
snickering at my poetry
banging their fists against their heads
stalling work
reading mushy parts of books they pretend not to enjoy
saying stupid things
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring tingle tingling too
F F F F F G F-D Bb C D C-A G F-
imitating the human voice with instruments
percussion back there repeatedly hitting the sleigh bells

You're absolutely right! Do you have ways of overcoming internal biases, if you ever notice them arising in yourself and affecting your opinions or actions?
Yes - sometimes I'll slow down and think of the situation at a neutral status, and rethink my actions from that point forward.
