on perspective

there are things
you learn
by looking at them
from different angles
a matter of
perspective
sometimes
the culture of a place
influenes that
the people surrounding you
since the people
in the place
define the culture
or are defined
by it
and you
the one passing through
get to see
their world view
which in turn
influences your own
and here I stand
in a place
much different
from where I came
and see the whole
more clearly
rather than segments
as before
it’s all about
experience
or lack of it
yours theirs
and the world
at large
suddenly seems
even larger
than before
