I
see you see the scarecrow
I see you
saw the goat
I
see you understand now
I
understand you don’t
I
see you found the knife fine
I see
you’ve hid your throat
I
see you stare the mirror
I see you
saw right through
I
see you shed your coating
I see
yours has blistered too
I
see why you hate me
I’m so
glad you do
Through
Inhalation,
I
summon air
Through
Exhalation,
I make it
disappear
two ends of a process
different yet the same
two directions travelled
connected but estranged
I’ve seen
you and your glory,
I’ve seen
you and all your fame
I’ve seen how you are blamed,
I see in you much shame
I see you expire,
I see you
return,
I can’t
escape you,
that much
I am sure
I’ve seen your attempts at leaving,
I’ve seen you come back to me,
I can’t afford to lose you
for together we are one
I see you
love me dearly,
I see your
forgiveness, each and every time
I see you as intended,
I see in bone we are the same
I see you
always bring the answers
to the
questions I’ve yet to name
I see you see the scarecrow,
yet choose not to run away
I see you
saw the goat,
yet never
chose to boast
I see you understand now
I see
something I do
I see you found the knife fine
I see no
need,
to
guard yourself from me
I see you stare the mirror,
tell me what you see?
I see what
you’ve always shown,
I thought
I’d find religion,
but it’s
your face I now see
I mirror your reflection,
yet it’s your eyes I now see
returning gaze to me
I see you’ve shed your coating
I see no
difference between the two
I see what I’ve always known,
I see how much you love me,
Surfacing from way down deep inside
I’m so glad you can
I’m so glad you do
Through inhalation
We summon
the air
Through exhalation
We cleanse
away impurity,
Accepting each our many sides
