Poetry Series Installment: untitled/Separation in Unity/

(Circa 1996)

There is a separation in unity
When truths are told -
But secrets are revealed -
minds displaced and confused
thoughts of purity - ravished by
the unpure truth: dirty,
filthy, almost nefarious-
unspeakable by some mouths
unthinkable by some minds.

Secrets kept and lies told
destroy so much
