Knowledge of Opposites


My journey
Returns me
To a primal garden:
Innocence,
Time of bliss,

Long before
There were more
Rules than behaviors.
No knowledge
Of opposites
Existed.

Too much in-
Formation is
Not always a good thing:
Classify,
Magnify,

Are you here or there?

Find your mind on a
Straight time line?
But this epoch circles
Up or down, and
Comes around

Cyclically,
Typically.
And so good and evil
Both enter
At center,

And swirling,
Whiling to
Carry me ahead to the past,
I stand under,
Over blunders.

The Great Wheel’s
Revelry
Continues to grind me.
But that’s okay.
For today

Is the hour
Of power
Renewed, by the sense
Of living
And giving

My All to Love:

Ignorant,
Expectant
Of only existence.
