Who is the you? Which is the me?
Wait–are there three?

You may find that you see
everything one way,
just as it is,
until one day you
question something and
have a crisis, and
make a big cognitive leap,
and then suddenly,
there’s another
possibility.

You might find that you’re seeing
everything a million different ways,
completely overwhelmed,
until one day, you
have to get something done,
and you have a crisis, and
make a big cognitive leap,
and then suddenly,
there is only
three.

One of you is going
to be the me
in a conversation with you
some time today.

You’ll know, because
you will find yourself
thinking, “this person’s thinking
is so simplistic,”

or possibly

you will find yourself
thinking “that person’s thinking
is so complex.”

Which one will be right?

If we pause, and reflect, and listen,
and speak with care,
i think you’ll see
–(between you and me)–
we’re not two,
but three.

You,
the peace we just made, and
me.

Which one is the me?
