In
the events of life appears
The
lives of people
This
angle of sight
Leaves
the wonderer in wander
A
complete distinction
Of
one to the other
We
have the A’s, the B’s
The
C’s, the D’s
Blah…blah…blah!
There it dawns on me;
which of these categories
an I?
I get obstructed
Seen
from afar these appears blur
At a
little shift it comes
To
none, none and none
Still
living in illusionary proportions
Down
in one way resonates
Our
own side of “downness”
We
are caught with few words
In
wounded bodies to speak
Many
do not speak at all
Seeing
through the smiles
Friendly
words and gestures
Love
and intimacy
Of a
resentful heart gives hope
Let
us be ready to change
Try
new things
Adapt
to new people
Create
a lasting bond
And
help to grow in
Human-dignity
Respect
Care
And
self-reliance
