You, with all your layers peeled
Me, with all my layers, unseal!
They, a figment of our layers, to heal
We, in the creator’s field
You, an orchestrator
Me, an autobiographer
They, oblivious actors
We, a theater!
You, a neither
Me, a gender
They, asunder – a blunder!
We, a wonder, together
You, all that can be
Me, a vessel, to conceive
They, for us to deal, the karmic weave
We, a marvel, reveal!
The poem pens the role played by each of us as an individual or collectively as a society in Life, including that of the creator.
In each of the verse, You – refers to the creator; Me – refers to oneself/ myself; They – refers to the society – when seen as separate and disconnected from oneself and We – refers to the same society when perceived as a unity
The first verse talks about layers of conditioning, of perceptions, of memories, of patterns and habits that we accumulate. It is only when we peel the layers, our true nature including that of the society springs forward. The creator is assumed to have no layers, hence is the highest potential.
Creator as an Orchestrator composes or arranges various groups of performers (people) to create musical harmony (Life). From the chaos of different sounding instruments he brings order. An autobiographer is one who writes his own stories – just like how we weave our own and project it to the world. They – a projection of our mind as society, mere spectators and We – a theater, performing the various roles we chose to play in life.
Verse 3 speaks of differences created on basis of judging as a gender. The creator is neither male nor female unlike us. The society thrives on differentiation (asunder), and we become a wonder when we dissolve the discrimination of male /female.
Verse 4 speaks of the creator as the highest potential, while one is an instrument to conceive life, the society is a cause and effect reaction while together we are capable of creating marvelous life for each of us.
