Context is everything in any war of words full of emotion
forgetting the facts
colouring the details with
bright flashes, bold stripes
until all that is left in the air is the ‘who is right’ question
until compromise is reached
until the bitter taste of ‘agreeing to disagree’ thuds to the floor
until perspective shows
that no one person is one hundred percent right for everyone
and no one person is one hundred percent wrong for everyone
“Sometimes one can be so closely involved
with things that the larger context is lost to view.”
~ Brian Ferneyhough, musician
