Volume 6, Issue 3B, November 1996

YES AND NO

Yes is a no word
a destructive word
a seemingly-positive, negative word.

A yes-person is no person.

Saying yes to unlife
wearing a guise of acquiescence
I plus myself to minus.

No is a yes word
a creative word
a double-negative, positive word.

I am what I am not.

Saying no to unlife
sloughing off the skin of false masks
I negate myself to essence.
