Subject or Objects

 

Some see what others can't

While others perceive what some don't

 

We all have the same potential

But we also have a differential

 

Although all our eyes are wide open

Some are awake and others haven’t woken

 

Some can see clearly in the light

While others dream as though it’s still night

 

It's knowing what we see with our eyes

A vision that some don't recognize

 

Wisdom confirms a single reality

While ignorance creates duality

 

I play this game of sleep and arise

As I lose darkness and gain sunrise

 

Since one sheaths the other,

I crawl out to discover

 

And find many layers of gravel

To dig out and to unravel

 

To fly high above the clouds

And rise above the shrouds

 

I want to firmly root myself up high

And forever abode above a dark sky

 

So one day I'll see only the subject

And not pretend that I am an object
