*Alaska Pacific University*

Two words have never modeled one thing—
More than this thing which APU clings,
The words are apart, but like us they need the other,
There is a oneness found in Each Other.

In the largest state, we have found much free space,
But it is blistering without a kiss or embrace,
The words are apart, but like us they need the other,
There’s a certain warmness found in Each Other.

Like the trees of rainforest canopies,
And much like the motion—that comes from separate skis,
They may be apart, but no doubt they need the other,
Like us they form a oneness derived from Each Other.

Two words and three letters can embody many things—
None more than this thing which APU clings,
There’s a Blue oneness from Each Other none can pry
That begins at the Fountain—and sprouts up when we Dye.
