I am farther away from sleep, but even farther away from excellence
I am farther away from need, but even farther away from content
I am farther away from sleep, but even farther away from success
I am farther away from greed, but even farther away from selflessness

But,

I am farther away from wealth, but even farther away from pestilence
I am farther away from health, but even farther away from negligence
I am farther away from mean, but even farther away from deviance.
I am farther away from safe, but even farther away from dangerous

For I am,

Everything that's need
Everything that's greed
Everything that's faith
Everything that's skepticsis
Everything that heals
Everything that hurts
Everything that creates
Everything that destroys
Everything you know
And everything unknown

I am a man, not the one you know, not the one with balance, not the one that loves, but not the one that's careless.

This was a poem I wrote about instability of men and women across the world. Where we spend our lives subjugating ourselves to one side of the spectrum, the idea is that we stay in between, we remain conscious of both ends and create our own interpretation of what life is mean't to be. Stay conscious to inequality, be willing to explore your higher conscious and educate the world with your new found knowledge.
