Bodies
You He She Me We
Separate static still
Can’t feel Connection.
To rethink is to rename
Who is who and who is you--
Can we transcend our bodies
Out of the body of society
We hate and yet why don’t
We change?
Identity is what you think
I am if I permit
You
Define my appearance,
Ability and disability so close
You Fear what you don’t know but
Do you really know anything?
Reexamine, redefine,
The power of naming--
He
Holds hands feet face eyes
Soul mind, what equals body?
She
Believes her body is souly hers,
But she doesn’t question
Where does she End and society begin?
Me--
To Exist when I see those who
Wake up and smell the secret hatred,
Expose and exalt me as
Definition of body-- What is
Yours His Hers Mine
Ours?
