Four Things


Four things bind us together.

The birth of a child.
A common enemy.
The setting sun.
The fear of being alone.

Four things separate us.

Belief in only one way.
Infallible scriptures.
The fear of dying.
God's exploration of discreteness.

    “I’ll see you
    When I see you”

    What binds us
    Alone together
    Also separates us

    At sunrise we hear
    Pine cones bouncing
    Across the roof

    At twilight we watch
    The cat playing
    With a ball of yarn

    Once the ball is unpeeled
    All that remains is
    The paradox of tears
