I am of three worlds,
accepting all equally,
and respectfully.
I claim To Be
nothing,
no one,
nobody.
Embracing my black
doesn't mean erasing my white.
Seeing no colors,
no lines in the sands,
of wrong and right.
I am of three worlds,
comprising one love.
Coming back to the middle-
with no below,
and no above.
My Libra scales tip
one side to the other,
but always in balance,
finding peace like no other.
Resting in a valley
of Tranquility,
I need not be loved
by anybody.
Looking around at mountains
of faces and races,
all making up one range
of displacement.
We have all been beaten
and battered by anger,
but cannot live in that hole
of malarkey and danger.
And so,
if I could say anything
outright, and without riddle,
it is this-
Don't obsess with either "side."
Just come back to the middle.

I was born and raised in Maine and moved to Los Angeles last year. I have been influenced to become more open with writing and sharing poetry. Being of multiple races has great influenced my writing.
