Equality

This is that
being is seeing that this is that
and what would we do
if the sky were not blue
and you were not you
and were not where you're at
and what would we do
if life were not that?

If to simp-i-ly say were so simp-i-ly said
being and living are needles to thread
in the dark by the moonlight
with thumpery head
for a life that's half followed before it is led
while the truth keeps on sewing
until we are dead.
