COME IN EVERYONE

As I walk around the city,
and people pass by.

I like to catch their eyes
and live their lives
just for the moment
that I look at them

—people I don’t know
or at least can’t remember.

My ego opens up wider,
while my physical body
remains the same,

and my soul,
with its larger grasp
opens to a broader swath,
and lets everyone else in.
