Black and White

I learned fear, and its different forms.

I learned anger, hate,

attachment and want,

inclusion and exclusion.

I took the road of everything pertaining to the self,

only to retrace my steps

and unravel the bindings I’d taught myself.

I broke everything that could be broken

to find my truth.

I’m tired of “I’s” and “you’s”

I’m tired of divisions and distinctions,

and all the lines and limits,

the 'rationality' and 'wisdom,'

that color the world black and white.
