Immigrant

what would you do?
if the stranger
beside you
opened a door
into a space
offering glimpses
some insight
possibilities perhaps
of familiarity
even belonging?

would you step in
and also step out
finding yourself
in between
perhaps the other
sometimes here
nowhere then
everywhere still?

In this neither land
somedays you see
perspective
shades in the spectrum
bold colours too
creation, then obliteration
changes encompassing
power on its own

only for those
privileged by pain
identity unlike 
any before...
