Without Borders

How do you conjure up a scenario:

no states, no nations,

only a vast ocean of humanity!

It may sound amazing - not easy

to comprehend; yet, look inward.

Blind self-love fascinates, but excludes,

blurring vision beyond borders;

a closed identity, its magnetic pull

gravitating, jams the wings of flight

to take off into the universe.

Try to see peaks from the foothills.

A huge wall of height stands,

blocking your searching eyesight;

from a distance they outline

a wondrous panorama on the horizon.
