'seeing' timothy, 2/12/2009

buddha looks the other way
jesus turns the other cheek
mohamed says it's in the book

rumi looks inside
st john of the cross looks at the same
mary, the other, knows she's not martha
lao tzu walks the unknown's path

mythos tells a story
legends see beyond the story
theopneumatos isn't found in a text

butterfly, i am
man, i am
woman, i am
path, i am

days, i look the other way
days, i turn my other cheek
days, i've looked to a text

seeing, not believing
seeing, not knowing
seeing, beholding
eyes to see, ears to hear

you
me
we
