really show you
yourself
like going to Europe
i discovered how American I was
someone with a very different background
teaches me what i am
and what i am not
much more clearly
than someone very similar
where differences are invisible
seamless
where we both share the same deception
the same blindness
someone who doesn't really know me
will lay their story on me
and now i will see who i am
in the midst of "attack"
can i still be loving
in the face of this ignorance
this "denial"
"hogwash"?
or must i
explain myself?
must i win them over?
must I change their perception
of me?
who am i in the face of my "bludgeoning/crucifixion"?
will i bludgeon them?
or rest
assured
will i be curious
open minded enough
to ask myself
if perhaps
their different vantage point
doesn't actually see something
i
have
missed?
perhaps
friction
can
result
in
smootheness...
hmmm....
God
is
in
everything i hear........................
