VOICES OF HOPE

THE INOUT RELIGION

By Audrey Hope

It may seem not…

That we are the same,

For you think this way,

And I think that.

You go to church on Sunday

And I meditate midweek.

Your skin is dark,

Mine is light,

Except for some days in the sun,

(We are a similar hue).

You believe your God is special,

And mine is not right,

And I need help, to be saved.

And we can talk for years about our differences,

or kill each other on the battlefield,

or in the street.

But, isn’t it true?

WE ALL MOVE THE SAME!

WE ALL MOVE THE SAME!

We do the in and out thing,

The up and down and down and up,

The inhale exhale

A holy mantra—

The universal religion of breath.

No matter what race what color what money in the bank,

We all breathe —

IN, OUT,

ON — the only place there is,

OUR home, the earth.

How can we be separate?

What is there to compare?

Maybe only to measure

How much, how deep, how fast,

This heavenly pulse.

We are all in

THE INOUT RELIGION,

In rhythm as one,

In one rhythm. IN ONE.
