Ahmad Shiddiqi - Blend

(dedicated to Ric S. Bastasa, a great poet at poemhunter)

can we surely separate
our feeling of anger and mercy
when we care a naughty kid?

can we positively distinguish
our emotion of desperate and hope
when we face a difficult job?

can we confidently severalize
our obsession of anguish and joyful
when we involve with an enigmatic fate?

all unite all converge
coalesce into oneness
all flow all flush

all unify all merge
integrate into oneness
all stream all surge

all combine all consolidate
syncretize into oneness
all current all circulate

(inspired by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No.1, Winter Daydreams)
