Two Men Of One ManA Poem by implicitAn alternative title for this work would be "Two Men of Two Worlds"
He is two men of two worlds. He becomes one man with a Western Glow. This man is publicly shamed and outcasted. There is nowhere he can go to escape the disgusted faces around him. With an Eastern Red he is another man of another world. In this world he is well known as a good man. A man of wisdom and virtue. The only disgust is burning deep within him. In the light he is free. Free to worship. Free to believe in his redemption. Free to believe in the value of life. But in his other world, the other man does not see meaning or importance or even reality in any of his surroundings. All he sees as true is what he has done and what he has failed to do.
The two men have two options. They may choose to combine their worlds, an option in which they would let themselves become one and live in a new world of remorse but also of freedom. The other option is to constantly ignore the necessity of the first option. The two men could wait for an End to find them, and force them together to be judged as one. © 2024 implicit |
