A mirror. A blind eye. A sword
Who do we view as the other?
The poor
The wealthy elite
The homeless
Republicans
Democrats
Convicted sex offenders
Undocumented people
Transgender people
Atheists
Crack addicts
Serial killers
Who do we see as the enemy?
The person who gave us AIDS
The ex who dumped us and whom we still love... deeply
The person beside us on the bus who reeks of piss
The co-worker who stole our research and made a fortune
The parent we think never loved us
What would we ignore?
The child within who still cries and laughs and recovers
The goddess inside longing to be free
The state of independence resisting all efforts to be caged
The siege of mediocrity
The calls for resignation
The slavery of the heart
The dark night of the soul
The sword that cuts through illusion
