Understanding

I enter a whole new mind,

I let my soul wander through it's experiences

It's another way to understand mankind,

But you don't have many chances.



You can walk a mile in other people's shoes,

But what does that do?

If you can wander through their experiences,

Then you must know them at least a little better.



To understand innocence is not foolish,

To understand injustice is not a crime

To act without seeking is foolish,

To treat someone badly without meaning

is wrong.



I wander through the experiences of a

weeping willow, swaying in the breeze, and

I wander through the experiences of a

tiger, crouching ready to kill.



I understand, mind you, I understand. Yet do they

understand me??
