The Middle Way
As the world turns, I still myself in the middle
I see it spin, I see it begin
I see it end
I see it rend
I see peculiar patterns
While chaos awaits
As I zoom away
As to say
The Middle Way
Is the way
The only way
To live the day

As the world turns, I still myself in the middle
I see it spin, I see it begin
I see it end
I see it rend
I see peculiar patterns
While chaos awaits
As I zoom away
As to say
The Middle Way
Is the way
The only way
To live the day
My mind wanders
Like water on a muddy hill
My thoughts take flight
Like a horse after a gunshot
What the hell was that?
My mind races
It jumps
It weaves
It bobs
I can’t stop it
I’m a perfect dewdrop
I rest on the leaf of life
I hear a trickle of rain
It’s happening now, with breathtaking persistence
I’m still as an ancient cave
I hear the echos of time at the moment
I hear the beat of my heart
I measure my breath as I stare
Fire crackles
I see sparks like stars
I see them spiral up like Gods
The universe nods
It knows, and so do I
I see the end
I see it begin
I see the symmetry
I see this life
I’m convinced
Life is balance
Beside the universe
Inside this verse
Order is chaos
Chaos is order
Night is day
Yesterday today
Silence is golden
Silence with music
Notes with order
There is no border
War torn fields
In the digital battlefield
I look upon the carcasses of bots
Russian misinformation machines
People with scars
Friends with tears
The roads of Rome
The digital highways of America
We have won the battle
Though the war is far from over
Our new battle has just begun
