Truly-There's-Never Two Of Anything Poem by Mark Heathcote

A caterpillar's journey
is, unlike any others
but principally, it's
like two birds entwined, engaged in lovemaking
Truly-there's-never two of anything
it is always the one becoming the one:
Even in coupling—all sources cocooning mirrors.
Rainbows appear when-sunlight-is refracted-
through any prism, life is no different in spirit
the soul's life isn't it a raindrops evaporation
the rainbow we see when
our chrysalis is also eternally opened.
