About 'i' Poem by Venmathi R

About 'i'

Rating: 4.8


'I' springs from the body and mind
But identified itself in the 'We'

Inquiring the 'Other' through the 'I' is philosophy
Understanding the 'We' through the 'I' is Ideology.

Negating the 'I' is shedding one's ego
Exploring the 'I' is psychology.

Sharing the 'i' with the 'We' is philanthropy
Merging the 'I' in the 'We' is social service.
Dissolving the 'I' in the 'We' is sacrifice.

Narcissistic image of 'I' is Dictatorship
The link between 'I' and the 'Other' is existence
Symbolising the 'Other' and the 'I' is God.
