friends

i have friends in both camps

in which you are denied

and in that you are affirmed

i have some in that middle too

hence i easily walk in and walk out

into all camps, knowing too well

neither my aflame affirmations

nor my denials make your being

and what matters is my becoming

a friend affirming strengths inbuilt

for both affirmation,  or denial

of you beyond that fragile me in all
