Being

To be real, to be true,

To be practical, to be political,

To be happy, to be hopeful,

To be full, to be free,

To be honest, to be sincere,

To be dutiful, to be divine,

To be sad, to be scared,

To be felt, to be frowned,

To be loved, to be left,

To be this and to be that—

Will all this do to be human?
