Life will, sooner or later
Bring you face-to-face
With your own disdain.
Your prejudices will stand
Before you in the mirror
You’ll come to see
You are all that
You had once disowned.
You’re afraid-
Now that you can see it-
That you stand exposed;
And minimized.
Before you can get others
To accept you with this ‘flaw’
How do you go about
Accepting yourself?
When you reject another
You also reject yourself.
Life is disinterested
In your distinction and
In your individuality
But tune yourself to the world
Stand not in judgement, but in harmony
And you will be revealed to yourself.
