It is a person that
stands in front of me,
looking, wondering,
searching for who I
am as much as I
search for who
they are in this
mystery given
in curiosity and
the infection of joy.

This search is for
a person whole,
not looking at neat labels
on a set of shelves or
shouting down the pitiless
deep recesses to a
hell created especially
to contain a human
and then forget.
