“A tribe is a group of people connected to one another, connected to a leader, and connected to an idea. For millions of years, human beings have been part of one tribe or another. A group needs only two things to be a tribe: a shared interest and a way to communicate.”
― Seth Godin
It’s the communication part that tends to be the trickiest in my opinion.
We throw words, syllables at each other
expressing meaning, conveying emotions,
motion, pouring lotion on troubled water
tho sometimes fanning the flames
conflating the conflict is more our aim
try to explain
and make it worse
non rehearsed we speak
not from the heart but from the belly
fear not love
yet we can reverse that
show the feelings we have
resolve to solve
rather than
fight to right…
integrate and synthesize
realize our ‘real eyes’ and not our lies
