I AM ME AND I AM YOU
abstract art
placed on the world's canvas with vivrant colors and
attractiveness looming, grabbing the attention of a curious gaze
mysterious the doors unopened by lost keys
in physical i am whole
psychologically i am birthed anew
with someone elses rusted slavery chains withered on the floors around me
never to shackle my psyche again
i have seen your life, good friend
i know your struggle is similar tho not equal to mine
yet your skin is equal to mine
and his skin is equal to yours
because within is seeking the shores
of Benin, hoping to see home once more
the light is basking on the other side of your conscience
once you let go of your neighbors inhibitions
you are to predicate your true identity
full of bliss and individuality
you are you
i am me
so where are paths crossed
do we meet where beaded rose petals fell from cracked whip surfaces?
or greased skin ready for auction?
or do we meet in these lines and books
where we find hope and education
making existence restless
time is no essence
rather find your essence
underneath your hearts resting place
lies the imprint of a man
whose name is as permenent as the
goodness that is battle tested and ever ready
your true value is placed on the knowledge of your being
and that bread can be broken with your trust of the whole
we are we
i am you
as
i am me
