I am yesterday, today and tomorrow
just different waves on the same sea
You are love, happiness, hatred and sorrow
We are you, you are they, they are me
Reality, fantasy, all boundaries lifted
We're enlightened, ignorant, in a trance
exalted, demeaned, an idiot, gifted
I am all three, destiny, choice, and chance

your poem, my friend
reminds me of the great
Mohamed Ali's famous poem
regarded as one of the shortest and most poignant poems, ever
he 'apparently' came-up with it
while giving a speech to a class
of mostly white students
using his fingers to accentuate
his words, just two words:
'Me,
We!'
(Inclusivity as Oneness
is a most beautiful, ideal!)
thank you!
Thank you so much L.B. I'm a little more verbose than Mohamed Ali. I felt a bit of panphysicism in this as I wrote it.
At the most basic level we are all the energy of life, one incredible, inexplicable, beautiful thing that you capture so eloquently in this poem.
Thank you so much Bella for your insightful remarks
