no, let’s not step
into the mud of labels
and stereotypes
and pronouncements and revelations
and fixed descriptions
and prescriptions
and easy categories;
let’s step out of that baptism;
let’s see instead
fresh and new and clear;
mostly we glide through life
lolly-coated with projections
and consolations
and mental formations
our minds programmed from day one
on spinning earth;
let’s, instead, if possible,
be still a moment
and see what actually is
the mud of labels
