Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries

 

never wrong nor right 

neither black nor white 

always poor framing 

truth escapes while waiting 

 

you I can’t deny

I can’t explain “I”

there’s another dimension 

we’re always missing 

 

easy solutions feel good 

crushing doubts with boots 

if nature only gave us straight lines 

if god was on our side 

 

it’s never green nor orange 

look to the forests 

subtleties you miss 

haunt dreams in an embrace 

 

not those ones and oh’s 

didn’t write the code 

swallowing contradictions 

before they explode

Robert, there’s a quiet power in how you dismantle binaries without ever shouting. The lines blur not just concepts, but identities — “I can’t explain” hits especially hard. This feels like a poem about seeing — or trying to — in a world desperate for easy labels. Beautifully done.
Regards,
Rolph
