Three of you

At every moment, there are three of you in this world.

One
it is the fiber. It's your thoughts,
your feelings, your emotions.
It is the you that no one sees and
that you hardly know how to deal with.

Two
it is the novel. It is your actions,
your words, what you do.
It is the one that most conforms to
society and expectations.

Three
it is the substance. This is the part
that no one may define. It changes and
swerves rapidly and constantly, like
a shifting sea of jelly. You try to define it
but the meaning is different time to time and
person to person and definitions become meaningless
in its presence.

Only when the three combine can you be whole and complete
but when you cannot define the substance,
are you anything at all?
