We Made The Trade
───
Now we're trading
You and I
Your first purchase ever
My next opportunity
Rarer than sacred steps with Ma Cheeta
in the gold fall jungle
We read each other
in a first 60 th
I counter your flank hospitality
which then shifts
as it should
as it must
to the prized palms of my others
and you ply
and I exit
And then we find each other
in a concluded 60 th
in the clearing
structured to be free of me
I am approaching now
to trade what I see beyond this
Our eyes inform our selves
that these given roles
we've been obliged to stand as
can now sit down
Our eyes inform our selves
we may now see us
just as the very few see us
across the continents
There we are
We become one another
As we're coded to
Trade flows
and we gift to our selves
the mechanics
of our worlds
of our navigations
of our responsibilities
of our nods
to the brutal beauty of Sapiens
to the traits we each evolve
to manoeuvre through it all
I drop into the pattern you weave for me
in my next dance with India
at your home
as your family
of your village
with your people
raised aloft by your pride
As Brahman gifts this meeting
we of life
from our kingdoms of life
gift each other the treasured space
for our eyes to see We ___ Ham ___ हम
for our eyes to see I ___ Main ___ मैं
for our eyes to see One ___ Ek ___ एक
for our eyes to see of course
that we love each other
We made it
We made it
We made the trade
