The place where two sides meet
and everything comes together.
Once a point of separation,
now re-unified.
To think
that all of this,
all that is,
at one time
was not,
isn’t a wild revelation.
This world
and all we understand
at one time
was not
accessible to our consciousness.
Once we existed,
we were still
divided in our nature.
Different, dissident, and distant.
Far apart as the stars.
Somehow,
some strange fate
brought us together.
These words,
your eyes, for a moment,
two consciousnesses entwined.
Where two rivers meet
there is often
a clear delineation
where one source ends
and the other begins.
In the end
we become
a great, blue ocean.
A little bit of everyone,
everywhere.
Our bodies,
our minds,
come together.
our spirits,
our souls,
reconciled.
Each of us has telltale signs
of coming together,
of how we entered this world
and how we’ll go.
Two things,
one and to another.
Duplicity
in unison.
