Feeling kind of blue
So I thought I’d share
This with you
Together in loneliness
Is an oxymoronic
Way to be
Two separate flowing
Rivers can only be together
If flowing towards
The same sea
We’ve both survived
The middle passage
Of our sated way
Let’s not allow
Anything to dam
Our oneness
Let us not succumb
To what others say
As they’re trying
To justify failing
Their tested way
Rather than
Ruminating on what
We’re dying with
Let’s give praises
And thanks to God
For having us
Alive and here
In spite of it—
A learned lesson
Of joy and happiness
In the onement
Of our oneness:-
