Once upon a time, there was a story told
By a merchant, oh so bold,
They said one thing is the same,
As the other, without a two-faced mirror,
But only one, (oh only one),
Were the same as the other
A traveler came by one day
And analyzed all the things he could say
The words came out of his mouth one by one:
“You can’t look at two things at the same time,”
But the merchant looked up at him and replied
“It’s that one, this one, both, or none,”
The traveler sat cross-legged and spread his hands:
“I don’t believe this, one in the same,”
Back to back, they went all day and night
“Here, I’ll show you once and for all,” He said.
All the while, the darkness was swallowed by the light
The traveler bent over, clearly looking with blank astonishment
As it was held out, facing him and before, he knew it
He was looking at both during the same time,
Only… with a whole knew sight (Yeah, it was only one)
But the traveler had no two-faced mirror,
So at this the merchant was amazed
Only his own two eyes, now open and alert
Now and on, he will remember
To look with an open mind and have a heart
Because anything can be
One in the same!
