The cultures I admire; if I could,
I'd see the world through many different eyes,
Take in the bad of it beside the good,
And know (and weigh) it all within my soul
Not by the standards of my own small part,
But as a complex, living, vital whole
Each piece of which has something to impart
But all of which lives, not to service me,
Not for the value I may see in it,
But for itself and its society.
I like to think I've worked on this a bit.
It is a process, though, and not an end,
A process I must constantly amend.
