BEAUTY
to see another reflection
more beautiful than ourselves
looking outward to what we see
recognizing that as what is part of
who we are
we see beauty
recognizing that
we are also beautiful
resisting beauty
denies our humanity
condemning beauty
embraces that hatred
that is why
the first actions of hated
seeks
to destroy beauty
that is why
the last actions of beauty
is to destroy hated
because even in hatred
beauty seeks itself
to see
a reflection
more beautiful
A. MENDOZA, 2017
