diamond in the rough

what's the difference?
a shard
of glass glimmering
in the gutter,
giving
off a brilliant ray
of light,
or that twenty thousand
dollar diamond
behind
the counter at the jewelry
store?
they look the same
to me.
but i know which you
prefer.
and that's why it'll never
work between
us.
