One

One

 

We do not need 10 commandments

Just this one truth

There are no divisions we are one

One mind one body one soul

One life one planet just one

 

So this is my plea this is my cry

If you do not understand I cannot tell you why

It is the ground under my feet

And my eye in the skies

 

I am one

 

When you see your brothers and sisters and say

Hey, how ya doing? Are you good?

Remember we are one

We all need something

 

Like the truth in the center

Of all the spokes in a wheel

Surrounded in hope and love

I honestly see we are one

 

Black white brown yellow and red

Gay straight queer square

We are all eating from the same plate

And sleeping in one bed

When we think of each other instead of fear

Accept each other as one

 

When you see a sick puppy

Or a wolf pack on the attack why stay back?

Can’t you see we are in one condition

And behave as one?

 

Look at us and yourself in the mirror

Because everything is one

 

Now who said let there be no divisions among us?

There are none here with one

There are no fences cells prisons or walls

They are all a dream an illusion we are one

 

I am one

 

You are one person with one perspective

Born with one will and one tongue

At one time from one mother

Just one

 

If you seek the truth then you are one

If we’d all love our enemies…

Well I’d guess there would be none!

Are you one?

 

There are no enemies in one

One mind body soul life planet just one

 

We are one the Christian Muslim Jew

Animist Humanist Atheist Hindu

Wiccan Pagan the Zen Buddhists too

The agnostics are ahead of me here

You all knew …. there might be one

 

And here it is because we are one

Seeking wisdom truth and honesty

Understanding acceptance and forgiveness

Praying meditating and debating

 

Who has the best answer?

How to attain nirvana?

Will I be accepted in heaven?

 

Are we really separated by love people?

What are we arguing about?

Whatever it is the answer is we are one

 

Like one truth in the center

Of all the spokes in a wheel

Surrounded in hope and love

I honestly believe that we are one

 

Preacher and sinner one

Cops robbers judges prisoners one

Dealers addicts Bloods Crips hoes and pimps

One

Soldiers generals president pope one

Kings queens and refugees

 

One life love hope dream and one fear

The past the present the future

Right here and now is one

 

The oppressors and the oppressed one

The rich and the homeless one

In the ghetto the mansion the igloo the shack

The tee pee the longhouse

Wherever ONE is at

 

I am my temple our temple is we

Let us be at home as one just like

 

One truth in the center

Of all the spokes in a wheel

Surrounded in hope and love

I honestly believe the truth is

We all are this

One
