Presbyopia
Presbyopia
With age comes perspective...
Can someone tell me
does midlife feel
like a fraying at the edges,
a blurring of the near?
At the Iowa State Fair
a reporter asks Joe Biden,
"How many genders are there?"
"At least three," Joe replies.
Once there were two
and now there is no gender.
Or maybe it is three,
a trinity, like Joe says.
Something in me finds hope
in this strange revelation.
Could it be we are becoming
comfortable with ambiguity?
A smile is the chosen vehicle of all ambiguities.
~ Herman Melville
Religious belief has made me comfortable with ambiguity.
~ Richard Rohr
