A Little Something Extra

God does not need me to make him god,

and my brother does not need me to make him good

I make him my father, though—

My father I give

The way I perceive is all I can share

my brother perceives as I do.

My salvation, it logically concludes, is my brothers salvation, if salvation is a change of perspective

But, it does not follow what the inverse is true, for truth only moves in one direction, and we cannot become less enlightened

So if I perceive badly, it does not follow that I cause my brother to follow, though if my brother also not yet perceive goodly, we will perceive badly together
