Truth (above & beyond)

Above party

Above caste

Above station 

Above place

Above state

Above nation

Above riches

Above race

And the reasons

And excuses

And the grief

And the shame

And the guilt

And the sanctions

And the blood

And the stain

Beyond language

Beyond history

Beyond reason

Beyond fate

Beyond now

Beyond later

Beyond love

—beyond hate
