The Web

You see a
frown and bristle.
Your anger
flares as well.
If you were
in the other’s mind,
Oh, what a
tale their thoughts would tell.

All that you
see’s not as you think
Yet instantly
you fear
That others
will cause threat and harm
To what you
hold most dear.

Be not
concerned with others’ acts
Their thoughts
or ’ere their deeds.
Just focus on
your inner thoughts
On your
individual needs.

Each one is
caught in his own web
And seldom
understands
That each is well
connected
By Spirit’s
glistening strands.
