Your world is one of barriers and fences,
because the I in you is one of barriers and fences.
Some things it would fence out as alien to itself.
Some things it would fence in as kindred to itself.
Yet that outside the fence is ever breaking in;
and that within the fence is ever breaking out.
For they; being offspring of the same mother
even your I would not be set apart.

~ Mikhail Naimy
