Tao

Twin flames try to outdo
each other's fiery aggression;
there is a black flame,
and a white flame.

They existed long before stars
began to twinkle.

The white flame is calm, patient,
honest, kind.....and many other
traits of mindfulness.
The dark flame is harsh, aggressive,
impatient, ill-intended....and many
other evil traits.

Until now,
the twin flames still try
to outdo each other's
fiery strength....
