A Walk Around the Block

There are alot of -isms in the world --

capitalism, socialism, communism, feminism, racism, sexism, etc. etc. etc.--

the use of --isms is fine

because they help

organize our thoughts, our politics, our policies, but--

when all is said & done,

when I meet you face-to-face,

I prefer to drop

all the -isms & just 

be

you & me,

two souls

in human manifestation.

Where can we meet

my dear?

Where is our common ground?

Let's walk there.

Inspiring, Hélène. If only soldiers on different sides in wars could meet up and realise what they have in common.
