Now I ask you to join me Now you celebrate Not being me. Not being you Only Us for the great UN load! DIS arm! EN large! OUT side! Some steps I will take Be my guest Pull your anchor Out of the lake We're In the room In the building In the crowded city In the country with thousands of cities The country shares the continent with an enemy nation The two rivals are carried round and round by the Earth's endless rotation The Earth obeys the master’s magnetic line, burning since uncountable clock time The sun is blind to his insignificance too, ignoring billions of other star mates, it can’t see through Immeasurable it seems, magnifying! All of them such tiny little parts in one of Miss Milky’s arms Some light years away there they are: Pinwheel, Cartwheel, Black Eye, Andromeda and Cigar Unmeasurable it seems, humongous! All of them such a fading little part of the cosmos There you are Floating from a distance Feel the empty ground Drink from the fountain of existence Still blind to insignificance? Still convinced about the rightness of imposed beliefs? Still judging others’ defects according to our pretentious and vain mind? Still punching away the different, protecting the mold? Still reinforcing illusory antagonism and insignia? Still seeing only two sides? Still holding to the pride? Still In the ******* room Am I? Are you? Let's try it again

Ego deconstruction
Others you should not judge, criticise 'Til you have seen the world through their eyes; Know where the person is coming from, Know the challenges they overcome. For on you it does reflect badly, It says much more about you sadly. Makes you seem shallow, superficial, So narrow minded and judgemental.

You Judge...
Carefully you cut my hair. The fingers of your hands slid through the blanket of my head. I looked at your eyes. Filled with such focus and concentration. Afraid to talk I tie a knot with my fingers. Afraid to talk, I made excuses. Afraid to talk, I tap my foot. Yet when I opened up. You revealed to me the normals of your life. But really a surprise to this life of mine. Fellow hairdresser, as I sit in the chair. carefully cutting my hair. With a scissor on his wrinkled hands. Maybe I should be more open. But I should stay closed sometimes. Like maybe...a half-opened door...

The world is a library; each person its books. Monsters gather together- to choose one to read. Terrified and alone, you pray you don't get chosen. You've seen what happens to everyone else: They read it, they discuss it like it's nothing but fantasy. They don't understand the reality; so stuck-up is their mentality. They misinterpret the entire book! First they cut, then they stamp and they put it right into the fires. You pray to not get chosen You pray to not be judged.
