This Be-ing Human

We contradict ourselves,
we hurt one another.
We step on each other's toes
and we fling one another to the ground.
We toss each other off
like faint breezes blowing in the wind.
We pretend that we aren't home,
that we don't see the mirror reflection.

We exude and we evade.
We call and we come hither.
We anticipate and we wonder,
"What's next?'
and "Why?"

All is par for course in this delicate dance
this horizontal mambo
and vertical dive
this multi-sensory experience
and poly-dimensional delight 
this Be-ing human
tonight.
