Middle Ground

Everything is middle ground… There is no good without bad, War without peace, Hate without love or joy without sorrow. Compromise moves the world, Helps us to grow, Allows for harmony and Preserves happiness. “Granny’s Clampett’s” old, “Yer either fer or agin me”, attitude never brought the world peace. Middle ground, is the battlefield Of a war averted and unity is it’s reward. The shiny medal upon the breast of a real hero. Middle ground never discriminates; Primary colors blend on middle ground Like the facets of jewels glistening in light-play. Their dance; a performance that gives new meaning To the saying, “break-a-leg!” No one waits for someone else to sing; Middle ground gives everyone a voice. There is no back and forth indecision; Brother against brother; No sending in the “idiot” clowns”” To cry for the masses on middle ground. They’ve been replaced with reason and Compassion.
