Imagining Another You
Imagine one another.
Imagine the other.
Imagine -
To be the other of you.
How is your other you?
And,
How are you too?
Have faith in this accident of fate game;
Role play your prevailing freewill
with a roll of the loaded dice.
Mirrors -
To seem mirrors -
A myriad of mirrors face-down your wall,
Unfolding and folding their gazing.
See how they reflect and refract the chrysalis -
The shadow play.
Do your anthems different remain the same?
So, does your birth right?
Do you empathise with,
Or even recognise the re-mirrored frame?
And the game,
That's anything but a game.
Facing opposite the familiar rules,
Does your difference seem in play?
Imagine, imagine,
Wishing to understand your other,
And imagine uncovering the path
you might together discover -
Almost like there is no other.

I want to apologize as I took you for someone else a fair while ago. You were right, everything that can be said about people and relationships seems to echo in others (and I would add about life in London). I think you are a kind person. Reading your verses let me be closer to England at times were I am not there. And this is a good thing so thank you!
