Elements of Mee

Elemental Mee
Aspects
Cornerstones
Of my personality 

Earth
Inclusive of a great divide
But grounded
With no need to hide
Focused on growth
But deeply rooted
Is Earth Mee
The best of me?
 
Fire
Burning with the history
Of humankind's injustice
And oppression
Fire Mee
Monologues angrily
Probably not the best of me
But certainly a necessity

Water
Taking the shape
Of any container
Flowing placidly 
But capable
Of great destruction
Water Mee
An inherent dichotomy

Air
Quick to shift
In a new direction
Fill your lungs
With every breath
Relearn how to breathe
When I leave
