how often one sees

that we as the human

will pull away and defend

be at odds with another

over anything not defined as one’s self

for to look at the other

should trigger remember

to love means “you are”

another version of “I am”

within judgment and separation

are more unloved creations of shadows
to blame another is to shame one's self

evolution is not polarity

we are rising beyond duality
and acknowledging the shared existence of a reality

in service to others will heal more than one’s self
