poem: Multiply by ONE

Finding a pantheon of identities that call themselves "me"
I find the world conspiring and inspiring all my aspirations
and my creations.
All the multiplicities and complexities brought to unity.
Scarcity is an abnormality
when my brain finds different strains of creativity.
My juices firing and my heart desiring
Dabbling in the arts, yeah I crush-a-lot.
Admiring the masters, yeah I lust-a-lot.
But I have an ongoing project of self-mastery.  

Furrawn, the connection that brings greater understanding
of one's self and others and even the world
Is greater than listening, it's about being thoroughly heard
Not only with open ears, but open heart
Embrace the new day with new eyes
Taste new smells
Encapsulate the senses with new dances
Do a jig with a techno beat
Can you rap that in tagalog or mosh the tango
Pantheon of multiplicites a buffet of spiritual beings
wrapped in human being skins
Akin to a family of one race
CALLED
                      one 
                                  CALLED  
                                                      One

called


ONE
