Keep the Balance

Agate skies filled with cloud-swirls; twisting, turning rivers of music dance above. Below angry magma bubbles up a sea of madness. Its chaotic belching disrupts all life. Earth is full of dragons, all colors, shapes and sizes. Slaying dragons is a waste when no one realizes what they've done. Perhaps we need those dragons more than we know. Opposites are everywhere; yin and yang provide a balance. Black and white, left and right, love and hate, war and peace but, blind humans see only one side. One-sidedness is the great destroyer today. A well-oiled Earth runs on diversity. Cloud-swirls and angry belching magma are different cogs working together. Dragons are as necessary as everything else and we must learn to teach instead of destroying them; to… tame our dragons. Earth needs color and sound to survive balanced chaos and harmonics ensure a smoothly running planet in a universe of well-oiled, celestial machines.
