“Politeia”
I want to sit
And talk with you
And let the
Categories fall away
Until I see myself
In you
And you can
See yourself in me
And we can be
Free.

When is a time that you have seen yourself in another person? When is a time in which you were able to overcome your differences with other people and understand your common shared humanity?

Thank you so much, Lori! “Politeia” is a Greek word for the government or city or state. Probably “politics” is a good way to think of it. <3
