Re-Evaluation - a poem and art work by T Newfields
Men are dickheads –
or buddhas perhaps
waiting to awaken instead.

Dust covers human hearts,
yet we also have capacities to learn
& make fresh starts.

Humans have crap in their brains,
yet we also have seeds of greatness
that shouldn't be disdained.

Humans can be seen
in multiple ways:
fools – savants,
heroes – villains,
daredevils – cowards . . .
what use is labeling?

Can we transcend such nonsense
& return to our original simplicity?

Can we transform our consciousness
from a boisterous "I" –
into a more beautiful "we?"
