Cosmopolitanism

I am in a transcendental trance
Of transmutation
To transnationalism
From nationalism
To translatability of cultures
And translanguaging!
From monolingualism
To transhistoricity
From historical binaries
To transmission of the viruses
Of love for humanity!
To emancipation
From translucent biases
To transmutation and
Transparent transgression
From hatred to love!
Disrespect to respect!
Ambiguity to understanding…..
But ah! The pendulating
Transience of the trance
Reverses the transversal
To volte face
From transcendence
To temporal!!!
