Mashuq Mushtaq Deen

We're individuals,
but we live in a context.
We desire to belong,
but we're afraid to be subsumed.
We're a part of a group,
but sometimes the group moves through us in unforeseen ways.
A student of this phenomenon,
I think about the play,
the rehearsal room,
the audience,
all of us together,
alive, suffering, striving.
With care, always with care.
