-Faces of One-
Tender strings for the gentle humanity,
And bitter-sweet for your experience.
Bound in paradox by time and mortality
While unaware of life’s true salience.
With a contrast of potentials, in eternal agitation –
By freewill, folly, and cause –
The resounding crepitation, of false excitation
Yet still beauty is found in the flaws.
And Tragedy and glory stand side-by-side,
With innocence so often in the middle.
How can you reside,
Heart and mind applied,
With this unending, and sorrowful riddle?
So you seek-out the answers, for want of understanding
The ebb and flow of reality.
Whereupon faces of all, transposed onto one
The answer is sheer totality.
