One
...particle
One seed, one tree
One forest on one planet
Revolving in orbit
Around one sun
(a star)
We live on a world
…rich with diversity
Interesting interactions, we refer to as…
Variety
In a sense we exist …in a bubble+envelope
We call …individuality
The duality of being …within ones shell
While orbiting about …a greater humanity
Of which we play an integral part
Of the so many ways…
We
Are
One
Of many dimensions
The advent of a birth of any living thing natural
Is brought to bear by another living thing
Which in some way …cares for the being it has become
We rise and fall together
The sum of …our living hearts
Being replicated by the one
(call it mom?)
Or if you’d prefer
…call it GOD
We
Are
Not
Alone
In a forest of echoes
Our voice is heard
With… others
Alike …and different
Others of our kind
We call people
Groups united by birth, blood …and association
Are our families
Groups of which are considered
…nations…
Who we are …one
Is not the same as being …alone
Life does not present itself that way
One sound …not music
One bird …one frog, one snake.
One tree?
No one …is alone
Although separated by misery and suffering
We find religion in ourselves
To remind us…
Starting with…
One
We become whole
Not unto ourselves
But collectively
By the individuality
By which our collective sense of self
Becomes expressed
As diversity
Better than…
The
Monotone
Starting …and ending
With one
Meaning
Only the last of …these
Surviving
One
…with
No hope
…with
No faith
…with
No way out
No prayer
…nowhere to go…
We rebuild this universe
With one…particle
With parts we construct to make
One…
Atom
Until one…
Atom becomes one molecule
One molecule becomes
More…
Than one, alone
However many tries
It takes us…
We join them to become greater
Until one…
Becomes we
Until…
We
Become One…
