All That We Are
All that we are
Our love
Our faith
Our joy
These are the skin that covers.
Bones and ligaments to join
and organize structure.
Blood that sustains and nourishes life.
All that we are
Our hate
Our doubt
Our grief
Pores to let protective skin breath.
Marrow to create nourishing stream.
Veins to channel crimson flow.
Negative benign yet indispensable
Without which is lump of flesh
Love working in hate
Faith in doubt
Joy in grief
Willing to bleed
Willing to feel
Ready and willing
To be human without fear
Our trust
Our compassion
Our virtue
Animation in our motionless bodies.
Cross-fertilization in
super-natural selection.
Elements of dark and beautiful metamorphosis.
Denied too often
Misunderstood
Food of the gods
All that we are
Essence of the ever-changing universe

PLEASE NOTE:
In this write, 'HATE' does
not imply hating people.
It speaks of hating the
negative things in this
world such as racism,
myriad forms of abuse,
power-mongering,
etc. etc.
