6-26-15


signifiers and performances
interpreted by observers
content to forego
experiencing the human
standing between
the cave and the light

within their shelter
they interpret gloomy shapes
cast upon the cavern wall
from a place of eye-sparkling brightness

fearful of sight deprivation
they evade momentary blindness
and brilliant resolution
of human recognition
and radical respect

eyes averted
unable to see the beauty
of unassailable humanity
demanding freedom, equality
and identity -
the shackles of the shadow rulers
forever cast off
