One seems to say

There is an after-world

Of peace & grace

Another discourages views

That project beyond

Our known world

The curiosity may be

That both recommend

Similar behavior

Stay humble

Regard the other

With kindness & good will

One seems determined

To find a way

To extend existence

A spirit, a soul

Something to transcend

The physical

Does the other

Abandon such concepts

Seeing what is

As completely whole -

Not needing an auxiliary form

That would allow

For fiction & dreams to merge

In the mist

Of an imagined cloud.

Somewhere in between we land

Separate agents -

Each of us

With our own flight plan.
