Identity
So long I’ve spent on the question: me,
too little on the answer: we.
We get up in our heads
'bout how our stories will be read.
But I found a kitten who was a stray.
Without thinking, he knows to play.
It begs the question, what would we do?
If we turned off our minds and had a moment or two.
To express our true nature without right and wrong:
I tilted my head back and bellowed a song.
Without judgment, leaves know to fall;
bread knows to rise, and we know love's all.
Minds say that’s wrong, and you can’t forgive,
but silence begs daisies in the concrete to live.
