We live by the words
and the consciousness imprinted by them
for a bird is a bird, but which type ?
We seperate in systems
to recognize the differences
between species
and the variations to keep track -
then numbers invented.
Then for things made
into subgroups, not what is, but by use
for it is no longer aluminium
but a can for storage,
nor is it wooden planks
but a floor
only because we laid them there
to walk across on.
Thus we standardize it
but often found it can also be used like that
it depends more on purpose
the lines are blurred
but we have to remain straight
or the base disappears
for we are not conscious without -
we live by the words.
