Organizing Labels

August 24, 2018 by Deanna Repose Oaks

We label everything
People, places, things
Few of them accurate
Most of them not
Yet we still apply them
To everything we see
Perhaps for purpose
Organize them in our thought
Those people, places, and things
The labels, personal
May not mean the same to the labeled
Offensive in nature
For their very existence
As they limit the person, place or thing
To the definition of the label
Leave everything unlabeled
Cause chaos of thought
