Humans Being
Performing countless tasks, we are humans doing.
When we remove the masks,
we are humans being.
Achievement is noble and is exemplary.
Exclusively global,
it is sublunary.
Essence is pure spirit met in your inner core.
Unshackled, manumit:
we approach heaven's door.
Diligently busy, toil has no deferral.
Chattels make you dizzy:
a vertiginous whirl.
Basic animation is personality.
Your predisposition
is extant entity.
We are humans doing characteristically.
We are humans being
in crux reality.
