To The State...

the distance between two decisions
is heaven and earth
i am situated between these two extremes
i belong to that spot
where compromises are made
i am but
a compromise too
my nature speaks a lot about this and that
and this space in between
i live here
in this place where people wear two faces
we have four hands
and four feet
but we do not display them
we fear you.
