Love Is the Easy Part
To be "involved" can sound a little sly;
"Complicated" some one says and rolls his eye!
But I protest and politely ask
That "involved" be returned unto its proper task.
Involved is care
to be aware.
Look, listen is perceive,
receive, immerse in some one/thing
other than the self...
Not just the facts, Ma'am!
Involved is feel,
like care, only more like real;
not just wash the idea
in some other kind,
but drink! Inhale with your diaphragm!
Involved is hard.
If knife to you to me is knife,
must I also die?
Or knife and not-knife
both are true and
I be I and also you...
Involved is life!
Alone, alone is guard. Experience!
Broaden means across a space between
Two wheels in one track
is ahead/behind.
Don't sweat the clear, uncluttered
mind. It's still okay to keep
the I and You in We.
